Tripadvisor adds two Hungarian tourist attractions to its recommended list
The locations are really nice to visit.
Hortobágy National Park and Nagyerdei Park are now recommended by Tripadvisor, which put them on the top 10 tourist attractions list, writes turizmus.com. The top 1 attraction is the Parliament, with the highest ratings and great reviews.
The Szépasszony Valley in Eger is the second most loved place according to the ratings, and many people express their appreciation for Hungarian wine of very high quality. Nagyerdei Park in Debrecen also earned a place on the list, in third place.
The list also mentions Szentlélek church in Hévíz, the Zoo in Szeged, and the old town of Győr. The Fisherman’s Bastion in Budapest, Siófok at Lake Balaton, and the Hortobágy National Park also secured a spot on the list.
While the ratings of Hungarian tourist sites are really good, there is another factor that means really good news for the Hungarian tourism sector. Foreign tourists are coming back to the country.
