    Upon arrival into Budapest, you will be met and privately transferred to your hotel in central Budapest. On the way to the hotel, you will pass by sights of historical significance, including St. Stephen’s Basilica, a cross between Neo-Classical and Renaissance-style architecture completed in the late 19th century and one of Budapest’s noteworthy landmarks. Over the centuries, Budapest flourished as a crossroads where East meets West in the heart of Europe. Ancient cultures, such as the Magyars, the Mongols, and the Turks, have all left an indelible mark on this magical city. Buda and Pest, separated by the Danube River, are characterized by an assortment of monuments, elegant streets, wine taverns, coffee houses, and Turkish baths. Arrival Transfer Four Seasons Gresham Palace This morning, after meeting your driver and guide in the hotel lobby, drive along the Danube to see the imposing hills of Buda and catch a glimpse of the Budapest Royal Palace. If you like, today you can stop at the moving memorial of the Shoes on the Danube Promenade. Located near the parliament, this memorial honors the Jews who fell victim to the fascist militiamen during WWII. Then drive across the lovely 19th-century Chain Bridge to the Budapest Funicular (vertical rail car), which will take you up the side of Buda’s historic Royal Palace, the former Hapsburg palace during the 19th century and rebuilt in the Neo-Classical style after it was destroyed during World War II. Today the castle holds the Hungarian National Gallery, featuring the best of Hungarian art.

  • H.U.G.E.S. a Visit to Budapest (25Th September -30Th September
    H.U.G.E.S. A Visit to Budapest (25th September -30th September) 26th September, Monday The first encounter between our students and the Comenius partners took place in the hotel lobby, from where they were escorted by two volunteer students (early birds) to school. On the way to school they were given a taste of the city by the same two students, Réka Mándoki and Eszter Lévai, who introduced some of the famous buildings and let the enthusiastic teachers take several photos of them. In the morning there was a reception in school. The teachers met the head mistress, Ms Veronika Hámori, and the deputy head, Ms Katalin Szabó, who showed them around in the school building. Then, the teachers visited two classroom lessons, one of them being an English lesson where they enchanted our students with their introductory presentations describing the country they come from. The second lesson was an advanced Chemistry class, in which our guests were involved in carrying out experiments. Although they blew and blew, they didn’t blow up the school building. In the afternoon, together with the students involved in the project (8.d), we went on a sightseeing tour organised by the students themselves. A report on the event by a pupil, Viktória Bíró 8.d At the end of September my English group took a trip to the heart of Budapest. We were there with teachers from different countries in Europe. We walked along Danube Promenade, crossed Chain Bridge and went up to Fishermen’s Bastion. Fortunately, the weather was sunny and warm.

  • Regional Types of Tourism in Hungary
    István Tózsa – Anita Zátori (eds.) Department of Economic Geography and Futures Studies, Corvinus University of Budapest Metropolitan Tourism Experience Development Selected studies from the Tourism Network Workshop of the Regional Studies Association, held in Budapest, Hungary, 2015 Edited by István Tózsa and Anita Zátori Read by Catherine R. Feuerverger Cover by László Jeney ISBN: 978-963-503-597-7 Published by the Department of Economic Geography and Futures Study 2015 1 2 Introduction On January 28-30, 2015 Corvinus University of Budapest hosted the latest workshop of the Regional Studies Association’s Tourism Research Network. The event had been held previously in Izmir, Aalborg, Warsaw, Östersund, Antalya, Leeds and Vila-seca Catalonia. The aim of the RSA research network is to examine tourism diversity from the perspective of regional development in order to identify current challenges and opportunities in a systematic manner, and hence provide the basis for a more well-informed integration of tourism in regional development strategies and move beyond political short-termism and buzzword fascination. In the frame of the network a series of workshops have been organised from various topics of destination management till rural tourism. In the age of budget airlines and increased mobility, the importance for metropolitan areas of positioning themselves in an increasingly competitive environment where the boundaries between international tourism and local leisure are becoming blurred, has increased. Metropolitan areas are highly preferred targets for tourists owing to their diversified and concentrated attractions particularly cultural heritages and up-to-date events as well as to their business environment. They are the focal points of tourism in a lot of regions and countries.
