Discover the hidden side of Budapest
According to vjm.hu, every city has a movie-like side, which is only known by a few people. But in the case of Budapest, the House of Mysteries brings you this world full of adventures, mysteries and secrets… 😉
The basic idea of the House of Mysteries was to offer an unforgettable night for the price of a cinema ticket or a dinner. In the beginning, they started out with escape rooms, then they also came up with outdoor detective games for those interested in intellective experiences but don’t like being locked up in a room.

A new family member, the Mystery Dinner was born later.
The organisers aimed to offer a sophisticated programme to visitors, in which they not only leave their homes but also take part in a fantastic detective experience while getting to know new people. And if they even attend the Mystery Dinner, they can discover a great restaurant. During a dinner like this, we can face crimes that we only know from movies.
But they didn’t stop here! Half a year later they launched Hotel Crime. This is a new generation, live logical game: it combines the popular exercises of escape rooms and the real detective experience of crime games.
The programmes double the excitement: you have to open several locks to solve a complicated crime.
And the team gets to choose the game venue. It can be played at home, in a hotel, office or even school – what matters is that everyone fits. The organisers provide the decoration.
In the case of the Town of Mysteries, the venue is given: the events happen on the cobbled streets of Budapest, where the border between tourism and investigation merges into one another. And the adventurous group visits the famous locations of the city to piece together the solution.
You can choose from several stories that would all stand their ground in an Agatha Christie novel on the website of House of Mysteries, where you can also find the locations, exercises and prices grouped by cities.

What is the Polish-Hungarian Friendship really like?
Tens of thousands of people participated in a quiz launched by Szallas.hu, a popular accommodation browsing website, on the occasion of the Day of the Polish-Hungarian Friendship, Origo.hu reports.
The Polish and the Hungarian participants had to give evidence of how well they know the other nation, and which nation proves to be better in different things, like gastronomy or sport. Almost everyone knew that the Polish currency is zloty, and the Polish are also familiar with Pálinka.
Unfortunately, there were some gaps in History and Geography. Although Poland’s national day is on the 3rd of May, 3 out of 100 Hungarian participants believe that the tie between Poland and Hungary is so tight that the Polish also have their national day on the 15th of March, manager of Szallas.hu being in charge of international expansion told Origo.hu
Half of the Hungarians were in trouble concerning Poland’s former capital town, for they did not respond correctly to the question: which settlement has never been a capital of Poland. However, there were even bigger flub-ups: some believed that Warsaw has never been a capital town of Poland. The Polish did not know everything either. Two out of ten Polish participants stated, that Hungary is not bordering Croatia.
In most of the cases, everyone preferred his or her own country: Hungarians like The Little Fox better than Bolek and Lolek, whereas according to the Polish, Origo.hu states, pierogi laps the Hungarian lángos, the deep fried flatbread.
The manager of Szallas.hu also told Origo.hu, that people of both countries shared the view that Barbara Palvin’s beauty is unbeatable, the Hungarian beer is better than the Polish, but in terms of football, Legia Warszaw wins. As for the competition of the capitals, Budapest was the winner.
After the quiz, respondents could virtually clink glasses. Szallas.hu created an application running with shares, with which users can share clinkings, which appear on a map. This is how they celebrated Polish-Hungarian Friendship.
