Hungarian capital also among best cities for a science outing!
As we wrote in another article, Budapest has also been chosen as one of the best European cities for families who want to enjoy the ultimate science-themed day out. According to the report of global e-commerce platform Ubuy, Budapest is the 8th best city in Europe for science lovers.
The Hungarian capital has 8 science museums, and 180 museums total, and 8 of them offer free entry, and achieved 196 points total.
“While the name of this museum sounds more fantasy than sci-fi, The Palace of Wonders is dedicated to science and technology. In the museum’s Richter Gedeon Laboratory area, children can don white coats and try safe, easy and fun chemistry experiments (as well as pose for snaps with their colourful creations). The Hungarian Natural History Museum in Budapest is another option, with exhibitions ranging from palaeontology to gemstones, and even its own escape room,” Ubuy wrote about Budapest.

Not like 26th of the 27 – European Union Country’s. /
Generous rating given Hungary, that I believe is mis-placed to on the “high” side.
Factually, through simple the growing PRESSURIZATION on the entire Economic & Financial outlook, and “growing” Distillation – of it’s Governance under Democracy, it’s alignment growing with Russia & China, just these MAJOR fact’s alone, MUST be – WOULD be, looking at Hungary as a “new” business location, negatives not Positives.
Operation costs of Business Practice, rate of Taxes applied to Businesses, and VAT being, the highest of the European Union Member Country’s – mass Trepidation – must EXIST, from those companies and businesses, in positions looking at – to expand look at “new” locations markets to make INVESTMENT.
Regensburg, in Bavaria, Germany exampled sounder, more opportunistic that Hungary.
How one can compare without accounting TAXes?
