Hungary Travel Information


Hungary Flag The Republic of Hungary is a landlocked country in central Europe. it shares land borders with Austria, Croatia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, and Ukraine.

As of 2009, the population of Hungary was estimated at 10,020,000, a slight decline from the 2001 census. The capital, and by far, the largest city in the country, is Budapest, which is home to more than 1.7 million people (more than 2.5 million people live in the Budapest metropolitan area). Apart from Budapest, there are three other cities with populaties over 100,000 - Debrecen, Miskolc, and Szeged - as well as many smaller towns and cities.

The Hungarian economy has since 1990, made a successful transition from a centrally planned communist economy, to a modern market economy. As a result of years of economic growth, the country is now considered a high income economy, although the global financial cris did hit the country hard from 2008 onwards.

Hungary is a popular tourist destination. People visit the country attracted by its culture and history, especially that found in Budapest, but also by the country's main spas, and Lake Balaton, the largest lake in central Europe.

Product Description:

With increasing airline coverage of Budapest, keen foreign interest in the local property market, a weak currency, and significant recent investment in hotels and other visitor facilities, Hungary’s tourist industry is booming. The first edition of Bradt’s Hungary won the Best Guide Book Award from the British Guild of Travel Writers; this thoroughly updated second edition further strengthens the guide, offering expanded coverage of Lake Balaton (which now has its own airport and is a popular resort destination), new walking trails in the countryside, details of the best thermal baths, information on dental and medical tourism, and much more.
