Savor the country of Hungary

Hungary may not have a coast, but it's filled with natural hot springs and the largest lake in Central Europe—the preferred holiday spot for Hungarians. Its capital Budapest features architectural treasures such as the Buda's medieval Castle Hill and the 19th-century Chain Bridge. Explore its culture by learning about their folk art and dancing to their folk music. Make sure you try an original recipe of goulash, which by the way is nothing like the Western version.
