Hungary is one of the best counties in Europe to take a trip regardless of you are traveling solo, with your partner, or group. Well, to some of the people, it may be known only for Budapest, but this nation has got many more things than that such as distinctive culture, architecture, classical music, and others. Well, thermal spring culture is the most important over here but a trip to this beautiful tiny country of Europe in winter will also enrich the travel experience. Here, we are going to present some amazing reasons to render support to our statement.

Budapest Christmas Market

Winter means Christmas and the Christmas market in the city commences with the winter. It is really less-crowded compare to other metropolitan cities in Europe. The Christmas market of Budapest is really among the most stunning in the continent. A lot of emphases is placed on quality and craftsmanship. Plus, the prices are quite affordable to other countries so, you can get souvenirs from here.

Casinos

Hungary may not have the gambling cities like Las Vegas or Macau but you are definitely going to feel the heat in the winter at some world-class casinos in Budapest, Debrecen, and Sopron. Casino and tourism go hand in hand and that is why casinos can be among the best reason to visit Hungary. If a tourist is into online gambling then, it is also legal in here. Players can get the latest casino bonuses new casinos and enjoy all the popular casino games.

Mangalica Festival

Mangalica, the Hungarian woolly pig, was on the verge of extinction, but in recent years it has grown in popularity again. Mangalica Festival has become part of the culture since 2008 and is being celebrated in Budapest and some other cities. Visitors can taste the unique quality of this breed in the winter.

Fewer Tourists and Cheap Hotels

As we said, the country has one of the hottest spring cultures so, the number of tourists is relatively low. Now, this results in lower rates, museums, restaurants, and other sites. Additionally, they are not much crowded so, you get more time to enjoy the places with more curiosity and depth.

Darkness Stays Longer

Well, the darkness, less sun, and the lightings may not sound appealing to a tourist at first but especially in Budapest, the dark season has a special charm and actually means a certain advantage. Because of the unique location on both sides of the Danube, the views are amazing but the nightly lighting makes them fascinating, especially from the bridges. All these can be enjoyed longer in winter. An evening stroll is a must and will cast a spell on everyone. In the Advent season, the Christmas lighting on the streets and squares adds to the flair.

Bathing Even in Winter

Bathing in the thermal baths is really fun in the cold season. All the popular cities of Hungary have abundant thermal baths spas which are suitable in winter. Budapest would be a better destination than the Canaries or South Pacific for this. Incidentally, most of the thermal baths are even open on the Christmas holidays

    The above is all very well, but promoting a winter break to Hungary just as the borders are about to be sealed is, to put it mildly, strange.
