ROUND TRIPS IN HUNGARY

Hungary has more than a thousand years of history, full of great events, battles, kings, allies, intrigue and enemies and sometimes peaceful years.

Hungarians were nomadic people who moved to the Carpathian basin from the East, somewhere around the Ural Mountains. Under the leadership of Árpád, the Hungarian tribes took over the land around 895.

In 1000, King Stephen I (St. Stephen) founded the state of Hungary, and accepted the Catholic religion as standard. Stephen was crowned with the Holy Crown of Hungary and blessed by the Pope. The crown is now displayed in the Parliament building.

King Stephen I is remembered everywhere in the country, churches, squares and streets are named after him. With him started a kingdom which lasted more than 1000 years and ended with the fall of the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy.

Hungary is a country at the heart of Europe, but it is certainly different too in so many ways! It has a wealth of culture and history, complemented by a language so completely different from its neighbours that almost no shared words exist!

Hungary is situated in the low, flat area of the Carpathian Basin, with a gently undulating landscape of hills and plains, and it features one of the largest continuous grasslands in Europe. Perhaps equaling these sights, are the wonders awaiting intrepid adventurers in the depths below the country. Though Hungary is landlocked it holds the largest lake in Europe (Lake Balaton) and is crossed by mighty rivers which divide and define its regions. Even its capital city is split by the Danube River, with Buda on the Western side and Pest on the Eastern bank.
