Hungary – Hévíz may become the European Best Destination in 2020!!!

Budapest was the winner last year; in 2020, Hévíz also has the opportunity to be awarded as the Best European Destination – as it was reported by the Mayor of Hévíz at a press conference this Tuesday.

Gábor Papp (Fidesz-KDNP) explained that the competition was first organised 9 years ago by the co-operation of 300 tourism organisations and the European Commission, who created the so-called EDEN network.

In 2019, Budapest was the winner; while this year, Hévíz has been selected among the 20 favourite cities, besides Paris, Athens and Fiume, which is already a recognition for the Hungarian “thermal city”.

He also added that the primary purpose of organizers is to popularize European tourism. This year, Hévíz has been nominated as being the best Hungarian health resort including the largest natural thermal lake in Europe, as well as being among the most dynamically prospering Hungarian cities – reported by the Hungarian news portal hirtv.hu.
