Embark on an unforgettable journey to Hungary’s cultural treasures! Begin in Hollókő, a UNESCO World Heritage village where traditional Palóc architecture and timeless charm transport you to another era. Then, step into the historic city of Eger, famed for its role in one of history’s most incredible victories.
