Cute spot, easy to find. Great for meeting friends or for viewing the small square or the lower part of Sibiu.

One of the most beautiful and iconic landmarks in Sibiu! The Bridge of Lies is full of charm and history. It’s a perfect spot for photos, and I love how it connects the old town’s storybook streets. The view from the bridge is amazing, and it’s surrounded by great cafes and shops. If you visit Sibiu, you must see the Bridge of Lies!

The Bridge of Lies in Sibiu may be small, but it’s packed with stories. Locals say it creaks when someone lies while standing on it—spooky and fun to test out. Built in 1859 as Romania’s first cast-iron bridge, it connects Little Square to Huet Square and offers a great view of the old town. It’s one of the most photographed spots in the city, with a great view of the lower town below. A quick stop with character while wandering Sibiu’s historic center.

The Bridge of Lies (Podul Minciunilor) in Sibiu is a must-see! This historic cast-iron bridge, dating back to 1859, is not only beautiful with its Neo-Gothic details and city coat of arms, but it’s also surrounded by fascinating legends. Locals say the bridge creaks if someone tells a lie while standing on it—such a fun story to share with visitors! The location is perfect, connecting Piața Mică (Small Square) to Huet Square, and offering wonderful views of the old town. The surrounding area is full of charming architecture, cozy cafés, and cobblestone streets—great for photos and walking tours. Whether you’re here for history, legends, or just to take in Sibiu’s medieval charm, the Bridge of Lies is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Transylvania! 📍 Easy to find in Sibiu’s historic center 📷 Great photo spot, especially in the evening

It can get pretty busy, but the view it’s amazing

Nice location to have a good photograph. Interesting story of how the name came about - shall leave for you to find out

such a beautiful place to visit and stay a little. At daytime is charming and beautiful, at night full of light and misery. We took some beautiful pictures here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable experience at Cheile Turzii! The landscapes are breathtaking and the trails offer both adventure and peaceful moments in nature. We enjoyed tasty traditional food, especially the grilled mici, and relaxed on comfy chairs under umbrellas with stunning views around us. Friendly atmosphere and good services — I highly recommend visiting this place!

Great place to visit. Some parking place are cheaper than others. We found for 15 ley. The valley is amaizing. Many different lanes, but be carefull, not every lane are perfectly singed. There are even mosstakes, becouse they dont care this to much. Its free, so no care.

Beautiful hiking trail. I recommend using hiking gear if you plan going further and explore. You have plenty of spots where you can just sit and admire natura, besides other activities such as supervised rock climbing and cave finding(only small caves)

Went on a Monday, out of season, found the parking free. The place is amazing, I never imagined one day I will see something so beautiful. Worth the trip there. The entire gorge has spectacular views all along the path.

There is no words to tell about this place. Excellent and super. We had a very good experience till end. It is a real adventure trip. You all must go to this place one day. We were there at the evening but I preferred you to go there in the morning time,then you will have enough time.

Beautiful place, easy to go even for families with children, excellent choice in any season

Spectacular limestone gorge. We'll worth a visit. Path is rough in places and can be slippy after rain.

Amazing! An impressive and peaceful place where nature, history, and science come together. The garden covers about 14 hectares and includes over 10,000 plant species from around the world. Highlights include the beautiful Japanese Garden, the Roman Garden with ancient artifacts, and the tropical greenhouses filled with exotic plants. There’s also a tower offering a panoramic view. Well-organized, educational, and relaxing — definitely worth a visit if you’re in the city!

Calm & nice place to visit for a reasonable price. Huge collection of different species. Most ways are easy to walk, but not always wheelchair/ stroller friendly. Must check timings and dates beforehand in order to be able to visit the glasshouse too! Check the website in advance, contains all useful info. Toilets: could be more/ at frequented places. Definitely worths a visit.

Amazing. Thousands of flowers and plants from all around the world. Huge trees, palms, mango trees, avocado, bananas, you name it. There is a Japanese garden and a museum absolutely amazing. The is so much to see, and it is so quiet. And cheap. A must go for anyone

A really pleasant botanical garden to walk around. There are lots of informative signs about the plants, and since it’s close to the city center, it’s easy to get here. Definitely a place worth visiting if you have some time in Cluj.

Highly recommended to visit! The best botanical garden according to me. Big and really beautiful. Very impressed with the amount of species and how well maintained it is …

Nice place. This is definitely not ther tome of year... but they make up for it by some light show. They said it is on from 4 PM at weekends, and 5PM during week days. I was atvday time somit was not on...

it is the most beautiful botanical garden i have seen in the country. it also has a walking area, it is like a park, a greenhouse area and a Japanese garden. it also has beautiful and colorful lights in the evening, with elements from stories

Beautiful place and well designed / renovated to be for everyone. You can take a stroll and admire the view, you can eat, drink, sit and even bike around. Very clean and maintained, beautiful flowers everywhere. This is one of the most beautiful places we visited in this part of Romania. We were lucky and stumbled upon an reenactment event with lots of romans and dacians and even barbarians.

Beautiful and walkable citadel. The best in Romania. Not only can you see the inside, you can also walk the perimeter which has restaurants, parks all on a nicely built path. So much to see and so much walking to do! This place also has an incredible amount of history and you're able to enter the halls and churches inside. Has some old Roman ruins as well. Overall, a must visit.

Alba Carolina Citadel is an incredible place huge, beautiful, and steeped in history. Its massive walls, impressive gates, and stunning architecture make it a joy to explore. The citadel is full of fascinating secrets, with hidden rooms and catacombs that spark the imagination and make you feel like a real explorer. Walking through its passages is both exciting and aweinspiring, offering a perfect mix of history, mystery, and beauty.

✅ The Alba Carolina Citadel is a stunning star-shaped fortress located in Alba Iulia, Romania, and it’s one of the most impressive Vauban-style fortifications in Eastern Europe 🌟. Built between 1715 and 1738 during the Habsburg rule, it was designed by Italian architect Giovanni Morando Visconti and later completed by other engineers. 🏰 Highlights of the Citadel - Seven Bastions: Each named after saints or historical figures, forming the iconic star shape. The citadel features seven gates, aligned along an east-west axis known as the Tourist Route of the Citadel. Inside, you’ll find the Roman Catholic Cathedral of St. Michael, the Coronation Cathedral, museums, gardens, and monuments like the equestrian statue of Michael the Brave. 🎟️Free Access: Open day and night for walks, with museums and cafes operating on their own schedules. I highly recommend it to visit once in your life! 🔝 Visited September 2025

Beautiful citadel, we needed 2 hours to look around, we especially loved the themed gardens.

Great place to visit, you can spend good part of the day exploring all attractions and museums.

Really amazing place. We went to Alba Julia with fear not to be disappointed. Well, we were amazed by the town. It is a place noone must miss

Incredible experience. Also great on Halloween, as it's very spooky and theme decorated. The torture chambers were also spooky, and I do not recommend entering with a child that's not above 12+. It's very spaceful and wasn't that busy! One of the best castles I've been too and definitely recommend visiting it!

The castle is impressive from the outside but inside there are predominantly empty rooms. However, it's fun too walk through corridors, stairs and passages. There is an amazing view from one of the towers. The nearest parking is 20 lei per day.

We did a daytrip to Hunedoara from Sibiu. Initially I planned to visit it on our way to Timisoara, but it would fall on a Monday, and on Mondays the castle opens at noon which would affect our plans for the day. Street parking around the castle is tight as they closed the parking lot for some reason. Admission is heavy by Romanian standards at 50 lei (25 lei for seniors) but it's worth it. The castle is very well kept and the interior looks pretty modern in spots but the castle is large and impressive. I'm no fan of medieval castles but this one is a must.

The castle was very impressive and beautiful. There was plenty to see and do there as a castle/medieval period enthusiast. The price of entry was reasonable 50lei/adult. Only few downsides were that the castle was under renovation (it's understandable) and that guidance in the castle was confusing. The rooms had numbers but they were all mixed up.

I had the great pleasure of visiting Hunedoara Castle, also known as Corvin Castle. This magnificent fortress, located in Transylvania, was originally built in the 15th century by John Hunyadi, one of Hungary’s most powerful noblemen and military leaders. The castle served both as a stronghold and a noble residence, and over the centuries it has witnessed many historical events, legends, and even dark tales that add to its mysterious charm. It is an amazing place that truly allows you to feel the atmosphere of real medieval times, with its massive towers, stone courtyards, and slightly dark interiors that whisper stories from the past. There aren’t many tourists, the parking area is close to the castle, and overall it’s not an expensive trip. The panoramic view from the castle walls is breathtaking! Definitely, this place is worth visiting — go there and step back in time! It's worth to arrive at place to see the castle during day and night - two different stories & effect! WOW....gothic style is really DARK at night! Some tailes connected: There is a rumor that Dracula - Vlad III (Vlad the Impaler), the ruler of Wallachia, was imprisoned here for seven years. See added pictures - as you can see the tradition of impaing still "lives". Corvin Castle could have been the model (or at least one of the models) for the fictional “Castle Dracula” because of its dramatic Gothic-look and its connection to Vlad. The Legend of Hunedoara Castle Just after building the castle, its lord-builder, John Hunyadi, ordered a great well to be dug in the courtyard. He promised freedom to the Turkish prisoners who could find water in the rocky ground. For years, they worked day and night, carving through stone with hope and desperation. After fifteen long years, water finally sprang from the earth. But instead of granting them freedom, Hunyadi broke his promise. Before the prisoners were executed, one of them carved an inscription on the well’s wall: “You have water, but no soul.” - see one of the pic. (in arab). To this day, the well still stands in the castle yard — and some say that at night, if you listen closely, you can hear the echo of the prisoners’ voices rising from its depths.

Among the few castles in Romania, it is in the process of renovation. Over the years, different parts of the castle have been opened for visits and you can climb in all the towers. The steps of the stairs are high and not easy to climb if you are not trained. Unfortunately, the landscape around the castle is not special, the castle being in an old communist industrial area. You can also visit recreated torture chambers.

We didn’t get inside the castle, it was too expensive (50 Lei per person). The castle is beautiful. They started to refurbish the castle so some of it covered at this time. There are few souvenirs stores on the way to castle and we loved them - lots of beautiful souvenirs, very nice. A parking near by (can’t remember the price, around 20 Lei). Toilets at the parking for 3 Lei.

Piața Unirii is a lively, picturesque square with colorful buildings and a relaxed vibe. I heard a lot of Serbian spoken around, and it genuinely felt like being in a small Serbian town. Great for a stroll, a coffee, and soaking in the blend of cultures.

So lovely 🥰 For me the nicest square in Timisoara, full of life and very vibrant. Lined with different restaurants and cafes and bars. Also churches and the Timisoara art museum 🖌️🎨

Beautiful Piata (plaza/square) circled by historical architecture and baroque and successional buildings. Many cafes and restaurants.

Very nice

A square with amazing architecture and colourful, old buildings.

After visiting many other cities I can still stay Piata Unirii stays on top of the list! I like a lot the refurbishment of the old buildings around the Piata Unirii that brings a lot of character to the area. There are a variety of caffes and terraces all around if you're planning to spend one day around! The service,food and hospitality won't disappoint you!

Nice plaza, coffee shops all around. Quiet in morning but more festive as the day progresses. No shade. Beautiful buildings all around.

A historical cathedral that enchanted my heart and became a must stop on my short stay 🩵 The cathedral has a different charm at night, majestic and magical with its lights. It has another charm during the day with the sun moving around it. Always radiating with beauty 🙌🏻 We were lucky enough to be there also for the festival parade on 2nd July 🥰

Old city of Timisoara, Romania, first class experience. Nice interesting old buildings reconstructed, clean streets. Everything is in a walking distance, you do not need taxis. Lots of cafes and restaurants not expensive that depends, sorry. We at at traditional Romanian restaurant which Offer Romanian cuisine, very tasty and for 2 big portion it was AUS$ 47. Again Australian $ is very low about 1€=2aus $. We travelled by car and pared it in city centr. We bought SIM card just for a day.

This is the simbol of Timișoara, the beautiful orthodox cathedral. A place that we all love and cherish. Anyways, we cannot, and should not forget that on December 1989 the clergy closed and locked the main doors and the people of Timisoara, were massacred on the stairs of the church!

The Romanian Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral in Timișoara is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks and a true architectural masterpiece. Its imposing Neo-Romanian design, adorned with distinctive mosaics and stained-glass windows, dominates the main boulevard. The interior radiates warmth and spiritual peace, decorated with beautiful icons and frescoes. The cathedral also holds great historical significance, especially during the events of 1989, making it a place of silent tribute. A visit here leaves a lasting impression and offers a glimpse into Romania’s rich cultural and spiritual heritage.

Cathedral of the Three Holy Hierarchs made me truly speechless. From the moment I spotted its soaring towers and colourful glazed-roofs, I knew I had entered a place where history, faith and art come together in one magnificent experience. For any traveller to Timişoara, this cathedral isn’t just a landmark to photograph — it’s an experience to feel. I left with a sense of having touched something much greater than just beautiful architecture: a living piece of heritage and heart of the city. You must go there. PLUS - in general Timisoara city is beaitiful and worth visiting - the city center is amazing full of interesting places. Timișoara is a masterpiece, multicultural city with a rich architectural heritage and a forward-looking spirit so if you will have time just go there.

What a pretty piece of architecture. I was amazed by the colors and materials. Inside is a well decorated Orthodox Church

One of the symbols of Timișoara. Beautiful city with a lot to see and visit.

If you’re into waterslides, you should definitely visit! Maybe a bit pricier than nearby spa centers at Mako and Moraholom which are a bit better value for money.

The water park is open all year round and offers water entertainment for both children and adults. Hot water pools, slides, treatment pools, jacuzzi pools, etc.

The place is pretty fun, has lots of different pools, even with warmer water for younger kids or colder water for “older kids”. There are places for food and drinks on the inside but you are also allowed with your own food and drinks. You can even buy water toys and floaters. There is covered, paid parking under the water park. There are plenty of slides and a lazy river that becomes pretty fast at times. There are different places that you can lay down on, inside and outside. I can’t give it a 5 star because our aqua park in Timișoara looks much better, this one feeling pretty old.

The Aquapark is just big enough for a family of 4 to spend 1 day. We had moved into 7 different pools from which 2 were outside ( one was baby/kids only). There are heated water pools that have more than 32 degrees and there are 2 hot pools that I guess are over 40 or 45 and these 2 had yellowish water so I presume have some minerals into it also (did not spend more than 15 seconds there as the kids were not interested in this). To eat there is quick food place near the outside pools where they serve chicken nuggets, hamburger, pasta and bevareges. It is visible that this place is not new and there several items that show the passage of time or the big number of usages (some restbeds were recoloured and showed multiple usage torns). Because of the several things on cleanliness I gave it 4 stars, in the bathrooms the ceiling was looking damp and broken and with black spots. From the slides part I could say they are pretty awesome. Two of them you go with the lift and they are quite long with many turns. Three are at 2nd level and other 3 are at first level. If you want to take kids to a pool and slides for 1-2 days this place is good and very affordable.

I honestly expected more for that price. You enter, and then you have to pay for the sunbeds, and the parking, and the towels for the sauna. I liked the fact that it wasn't crowded at all, especially in the SPA area that belongs to the hotel. Loved the saunas, and the jacuzzi.

The slides are diverse enough, but quite outdated. They charge you for parking (2 eur/hour) and prices for beverages are quite high. All in all, I think there is better value for money in other hungarian waterparks. But still, a good place to chill and have fun with kids.

Really excellent day out. Not crowded at all on a weekday in August, many slides of various adrenaline levels, lazy river, “cave,” lots of interesting structures to swim through and around. No deep water other than under one particular slide, and that area is only reached via the slide itself (there’s another small slide going down from the landing area, so there’s no way for a child to suddenly find themselves in water over their head.) You get a digital “watch” at the entrance which grants access to various areas and also unlocks your locker (no coins required). “Safe deposit” boxes are also available for rental behind the desk if you want more security for your phone/passports. Multiple pools at different temperatures; huge indoor and outdoor spaces. Lots of available places to sit or lie down. We mostly stayed inside because of the blazing sun—there was more than enough to keep my kids busy without needing to bother every two hours with sunscreen. You’re supposed to wear flip flops whenever outside the pool but we didn’t have them and no one said anything. Well worth a trip to Szeged.

Petrovaradin Fortress is very important and beautiful fortress in Serbia and, in brief, it was used for military and strategic purposes by different empires and kingdoms throughout history. It's something to read about. This river is a well known European river Danube.

The Petrovaradin Fortress, located in Novi Sad, Serbia, is a historic site overlooking the Danube River. Often referred to as the "Gibraltar on the Danube," it was built by the Austrians in the 17th and 18th centuries to defend against Ottoman invasions. The fortress is known for its massive walls, underground tunnels, and the iconic clock tower. Today, it hosts the EXIT Festival and remains a popular tourist destination, offering stunning views of the river and the city. Its blend of history, culture, and architecture makes it a fascinating landmark.

The Petrovaradin Fortress has a huge historical value and it's one of the most beautiful place to visit while being in Serbia! The sightseeing is out of this world! Being on top of everything offers a great experience while looking at the city of Novi Sad from above. I recommend this place to all the tourists! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really nice view of Novi Sad and beyond. Also lovely to be able to walk freely around the walls, ramparts and grounds. We were there just after the 2 big storms so trees and roof tiles were scattered everywhere, as well as plenty of other debris. Hope everything gets put back together!

It's not so easy to find. Beautiful place

Nice, not much shade during the day. Good for picnic in the park

Exit Festival was amazing. So many great acts, really nice crowd and good vibes

Visiting the Royal Palace of Gödöllő was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the elegance and historical charm of the palace grounds. The architecture is breathtaking, beautifully restored, and a true reflection of 18th-century grandeur. Inside, the rooms are rich with history—each one tells a story, especially the ones dedicated to Empress Elisabeth ("Sisi"). The exhibitions are well-curated and informative without being overwhelming. I especially appreciated the attention to detail in preserving the original furnishings and decor, which really transports you back in time. The gardens are just as impressive—perfect for a peaceful stroll or a photo opportunity. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the palace’s heritage. Whether you're a history enthusiast or just looking for a beautiful cultural experience outside of Budapest, this place is an absolute must-see. Highly recommend adding it to your itinerary!

A nice getaway place away from the city. Took about 1h15m of subway plus suburban railway to travel from Budapest to here. They offer crossword game sheet right after the entrance which is very practical to visit and learn. After the visit, we had a short walk in the Godollo town and found a rather cheap cafe

A beautiful castle with lots of character! The castle itself is stunning, filled with beautiful paintings, old photographs, memorabilia, and historical charm. However, I was a bit disappointed by the gardens. The grass and overall landscaping didn’t seem well maintained, which took away from the experience. We also found only one map, so we often weren’t sure where we were or what we were looking at. With some care and attention, the gardens have great potential, and if they were revamped, this place could truly be a hidden gem inside and out.

A beautiful Palace to visit. Nice to walk around the gardens. All facts and information are in multiple languages. There is a cafe and two small gift shops.

Gödöllő Palace is nothing special. You'll find a bit of history there, a few pieces of Queen Sisi's furniture, some clothes, and paintings. If you're passing by, it's worth a quick stop, but I definitely wouldn't make a special trip just for it.

The start of the tour was not so great but that was because they were the older rooms. The second half was beautiful.

Beautiful Baroque style palace. Very well conserved, wonderful furniture and art pieces. Learn about Sisi, when why the Hungarians love her so much

Richly decorated art nouveau style basilica, full of history and relics. The mosaics are impressive, the style is magnificent and sculptures are masterful. There is so much to see here. Tip: buy your tickets online at least a couple of days in advance. They don't sell tickets at the entrance and there is often none available even online

What a beautiful church. The details are incredible. We went to a concert tonight - the music was beautiful. Definitely recommend! Also, go to the Panoramic viewpoint. You can take the elevator up partway, but you still need to climb several floors of stairs- but it was so cool to see the cement structure of the dome!

Absolutely breathtaking! Visiting St. Stephen’s Basilica was an unforgettable experience. The interior left me amazed, the details, artwork, and overall grandeur are simply stunning. It’s truly one of the most beautiful pieces of architecture I’ve ever seen, and I’d say it’s a must-visit in Budapest. We bought tickets for the church only, and even that was more than worth it. The craftsmanship inside is so intricate that you can spend a long time just admiring the details. The Basilica is also home to Hungary’s most sacred relic, the mummified right hand of St. Stephen, the first King of Hungary, which is displayed in the chapel. For those interested, there’s also an option to visit the dome, which offers a panoramic view of Budapest — I didn’t do it this time, but I’ve heard it’s well worth it. Tickets are reasonably priced, and it’s a good idea to check the opening hours as the Basilica also hosts concerts and services. Highly recommend adding this to your Budapest itinerary — both for its beauty and its cultural significance.

This church is one of my mom’s favorites, and during our visit to Budapest it quickly became one of mine as well. It’s definitely a must-see. You do need a ticket to enter, but purchasing them online is simple, and entry times are clearly scheduled. The area outside can get quite busy, yet inside the basilica it feels calm and organized. The architecture is stunning, and after your visit there are plenty of dining options nearby.

Saint Stephen’s Basilica is A Must-See Masterpiece ⛪️ Wow…just wow. Saint Stephen’s Basilica is absolutely breathtaking. Whether you’re religious or not, or even if you’re not the “church enthusiast” type, this is one spot in Budapest you have to see. To say the interior is stunning would be an understatement, it’s jaw-droppingly beautiful. (Check the pictures below, words barely do it justice.) The church is massive and has multiple parts to explore: the main hall, an elevator leading up to the terrace, and the treasury upstairs. Pro tip: go for the all-access ticket. It’s around €23 per person and 100% worth it. Sure, the main church alone is lovely if you’re in a rush, but the terrace and treasury really complete the experience. The terrace view of Budapest is absolutely gorgeous. Not to be biased, but it’s honestly better than the sky deck 😂 Plan for about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes to see everything at a relaxed pace. There are toilets upstairs too, which is another reason to grab that all-access pass (seriously, finding public bathrooms in Budapest can be an adventure on its own 💀). Overall…An incredible landmark, well worth the time and money. If you’re in Budapest, put this high on your list. It’s a true gem of the city.

Hello! The in-person ticket office is across the street (off ground), so be aware. The line to get tickets was not long at all. The basilica and panoramic view combination is the best value. There is a discount for seniors (65 years and older). The basilica is a wonder to see! There are many alcoves as well as central seating. Don’t forget to look up as the ceilings are also quite beautiful to see. The entrance for the panoramic view area is near the main entrance and you don’t have to exit the basilica to access. Your choice on walking up the 304 steps or taking a lift to get to the third floor. A second lift gets you up to the panoramic area - there is a limit to four persons per car on that second lift. On the way back down, visit the Treasury for a break in those 304 steps. Enjoy!

Make sure you get tickets not just to go inside but up to the top. You can take a lift pretty much all the way up there and there are toilets also. I’d suggest going at night get an amazing view of the city lit up.

This is really an impressive building and worth of sightseeing from inside as well. They have prepared the guides in many languages which is very good so people or not limited to english only. It woould be better that the tour was a bit longer and probably more detailed but overall it was fine. Thr big remark goes to the price for entrance which is huge!

The Hungarian Parliament Building at night is breathtaking. As darkness settles over Budapest, the entire Gothic Revival masterpiece glows with a golden light that reflects across the Danube, creating a mirror image so perfect it feels dreamlike. Seen from the Buda side, the building dominates the skyline, every spire and arch illuminated with precision. The reflection rippling in the river gives the scene a kind of quiet grandeur that photographs never quite capture. Up close on the Pest side, the building feels even more impressive. The sheer scale, the intricate carvings, and the warm glow of the stone make it clear why it’s one of Europe’s architectural treasures. At night, the Parliament isn’t just a government seat—it’s a symbol of the country’s history, pride, and resilience, standing tall against the dark sky. The best time to visit is after sunset, when the crowds thin and the city slows down. Walk along the Danube promenade, pause on the Chain Bridge, or simply sit by the water and watch the lights flicker. It’s one of those views that remind you why travel matters: moments of stillness and awe that stay with you long after you’ve left.

One of the most beautiful buildings in Europe and an absolute must-see in Budapest. The architecture is stunning from every angle — day or night — but seeing it lit up in the evening is truly magical. The area around the Parliament is clean, safe and perfect for walking. You can enjoy the riverside view, take amazing photos and really feel the history of the city. Even if you don’t go inside for a tour, the exterior alone is worth the visit. If you can, go both during the day and at night — completely different vibe and both unforgettable.

One of the most magnificent buildings in all of Europe, pure architectural poetry on the banks of the Danube. The neo-Gothic spires, symmetry, and sheer scale are jaw-dropping, especially when seen from across the river or from a Danube night cruise. Up close, the craftsmanship is even more intricate, statues, arches, and details that feel almost unreal. It’s stunning by day but beyond magical at night, when it glows gold against the dark river. Tip: Skip the guided tour if short on time - the real magic is outside, especially at sunset from the opposite bank or from Fisherman’s Bastion.

The Hungarian Parliament Building is one of the most stunning landmarks in Europe. Built in a Neo-Gothic style with pointed towers and intricate details, it dominates the Danube’s riverside skyline. Even if you don’t go inside (the interior visit is paid), it’s absolutely worth admiring from the outside. For the best view, head to the Buda side — the sight of the Parliament reflecting on the river is simply unforgettable.

One of the most stunning structures I've seen. Incredibly beautiful. From all sides. From any distance. Top 1 in Budapest. The photos look unreal, but they're real!) I highly recommend a tour inside. It lasts about an hour. Available in different languages. You definitely need to book in advance for a specific time, because the number of spots is limited. You might wait a couple of hours if you don't book. This is an active government building, so there are security measures - you need to arrive at least 10-15 minutes before your scheduled time. Of course there are items that are prohibited from bringing inside. Regarding the parliament inside. Very atmospheric. A completely different style than the exterior. In my opinion there's too much gold) but it's definitely worth it

I didn’t go inside, but even from the outside, the Hungarian Parliament left me speechless! The architecture is absolutely stunning — elegant, powerful, and perfectly reflected on the Danube River. I could’ve stood there for hours just admiring the view. Especially during sunset, it feels like a dream. One of the most beautiful landmarks in Budapest, no doubt! 💛

The Shoes on the Danube Bank is one of the most moving and powerful memorials I’ve ever visited. It’s simple in design yet incredibly emotional, rows of iron shoes along the river remind us of the tragic fate of the Jews who were executed here during World War II. Standing in that spot, looking at the shoes with the Danube flowing beside them, you really feel the weight of history and loss. It’s a place of silence and reflection, not just a tourist stop. A must-visit in Budapest if you want to understand the city’s history on a deeper level.

Nice sobering view. It's lovely to see people respectfully taking photos and then moving aside for others to visit/take pics. NOTE: It can be challenging to access via scooter, you're better off walking down to the foreshore after parking your bike/scooter further up (lesson learnt!) ACCESSIBILITY: It is wheelchair and pram accessible and there are large sandstone blocks that people can sit/rest on.

Very moving and picturesque memorial on the beautiful bank of the Danube. Easily accessible by public transportation and free. Great opportunity to hang out by the great river and appreciate the long and sometimes sad history of this wonderful city.

Pretty impressive monument, a must see when in Budapest. You would likeness it as an art piece but it is actually a moving historical artifacts.

The memorial for the Jews taken to this spot during the Nazi occupation and shot by the locals and thrown into the Danube river. Public space. Always reachable. Must visit to remember our duty as human beings: be tolerant and respect others.

Sombre experience at this free to visit installation of historical significance. You can simply take a stroll along the Danube soaking in the views until you come across it. There are places to sit there as well.

The walk from our river boat was about 30 minutes along the Danube River. The path was not smooth with rocky terrain and uneven stones as well as metal grating. It was sad to see all the different shoes from men, women and children. It's impactful.

Visiting the Chain Bridge in Budapest was an unforgettable experience. Walking across this iconic bridge offers incredible views of the Danube River and the city’s stunning architecture. The bridge itself is impressive, with its historic design and beautiful details that make it perfect for photos. It is especially magical at sunset when the lights start to illuminate the city. The area around the bridge is lively and easy to explore on foot, making it a great spot for a stroll and taking in the atmosphere of Budapest. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the city.

This wonderful bridge is definitely the most beautiful bridge of Budapest, symbol of the Hungary and an absolute must-see for any visitor. Connects Buda and Pest. From the bridge, you get perfect shots of the Buda Castle, the Hungarian Parliament, and the entire river panorama. The atmosphere after dark is magical

A special, impressive construction. It gives a special charm to the area and very interesting perspectives from both its ends but also along the pedestrian passage. Walking on the bridge allows you to capture some special images of Pest, Buda and the Danube.

The Chain Bridge in Budapest is truly one of the city’s most stunning landmarks! Walking across it during the day gives you a beautiful view of both Buda and Pest, but it’s at night when the bridge becomes absolutely magical. The whole structure glows with warm lights, reflecting beautifully on the Danube River and creating a breathtaking view of the illuminated Parliament and Buda Castle. The atmosphere feels peaceful yet full of life — perfect for an evening stroll or photos. Definitely one of the highlights of Budapest that shouldn’t be missed!

Beautiful bridge. Not much to say about it, it’s just great looking. Definitely worth a visit, I mean it’s in the centre and there are a lot of historic monuments nearby so yeah. Great bridge I guess.

I went here in October 2025. I really felt awesome looking it with the pink theme. Very nice and crowdy place. For a good feel and view should visit in the night time. This bridge is special because it connects all main locations.

The Széchenyi Chain Bridge is not just a bridge; it is the heart and soul of Budapest. Walking across this architectural masterpiece is an absolute must-do for any visitor. It perfectly connects the historic charm of Buda with the vibrant life of Pest, offering stunning views every step of the way.

Beautiful place up on the Buda side. The views are nice and it looks incredible when the lights go on at night. We did not go inside but admired the beautiful architecture from the outside. Definitely a must do when in town.

Fisherman’s Bastion is one of Budapest’s most enchanting landmarks. We visited during the day and returned at night, and both experiences were magical. By day, the Neo-Romanesque terraces frame sweeping views of the Danube and the Parliament building, perfect for photos. At night, the city lights transform the scene into something straight out of a storybook. The architecture is stunning: white stone towers, turrets, and archways that feel like a castle from a fantasy novel. It’s not just beautiful, it’s steeped in history, built to honor the guild of fishermen who defended this part of the city walls in the Middle Ages. The atmosphere is peaceful in the morning, with fewer crowds, and you can wander freely through the arches and balconies. At night, it’s more lively but still romantic, with illuminated spires and the Parliament glowing across the river. Tip: Go twice—daytime for clarity, nighttime for magic. Combine your visit with Matthias Church next door. Bring a camera; every angle is postcard-worthy. Arrive early for quiet moments and fewer tourists. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. Fisherman’s Bastion is not just a viewpoint it’s an experience that captures the essence of Budapest’s beauty and history.

Simply gorgeous, I recommended walking there as well. The panoramic view. The place itself, especially at night is worth every step. It's really a nice experience to walk across the chain bridge to this castle.

Absolutely breathtaking views over the city. Also great to just walk around and see the old sites and fort and it can all be done for free too. You can also purchase tickets and pay extra to go inside the church and walk up the walls but we didn’t do this and it still sufficed

Amazing looking, the streets here look like a different world. The surrounding restaurants and stuff is a little bit more expensive than elsewhere so be prepared for that. You can see the whole of Budapest from here! No need to pay to go a level above on the lookout (it’s useless). Only thing sad is you have to pay to enter the church, but other than that it’s amazing.

The view is amazing! Can't say enough! Even on a cloudy day it was worth visiting. If you're visiting Budapest is truly a must. There are many steps but if you're going on Buda with a taxi you can ask the driver to drop you off at Matthias's church so no need to walk up all the stairs.

Fisherman’s Bastion is absolutely breathtaking! 🏰✨ The fairytale-style architecture, with its towers and arches, creates a magical atmosphere. The panoramic views over Budapest — especially of the Parliament and the Danube — are some of the best in the city. It’s a beautiful place to walk around, take photos, and enjoy the scenery. Truly a must-visit landmark! 🌟

The Basilica of Esztergom is a truly magnificent and unmissable sight. As the largest church in Hungary, its sheer scale and grandeur are absolutely breathtaking from the moment you approach it. The stunning neoclassical architecture makes a powerful statement, and the sense of history is palpable, given its role as a key religious and historical site in Hungary. Stepping inside, the vast interior is just as impressive, with its grand altar, beautiful frescoes, and a serene atmosphere. However, the absolute highlight is the climb to the top of the dome. The panoramic 360-degree views of the Danube River, Esztergom city, and the Štúrovo on the Slovakian side are simply spectacular. A visit to the crypt and the Treasury (with its stunning collection of religious artifacts) is also highly recommended. This basilica is not just a church; it's a historical landmark and an architectural masterpiece that offers a profound and memorable experience.

The Esztergom Basilica is truly breathtaking — one of Hungary’s most impressive landmarks! Standing high above the Danube, it offers incredible panoramic views of both Hungary and Slovakia. Inside, the vast dome and detailed artworks are simply stunning, and the main altar painting is actually the largest single-canvas altarpiece in the world! Don’t miss visiting the Panorama Café at the top — it’s free to go up, and the views with a coffee are unforgettable. A must-see when exploring Esztergom!

Absolutely stunning and majestic place! The Esztergom Basilica stands beautifully by the Danube River with breathtaking architecture and a peaceful atmosphere. Offers a wide panoramic view of the city and the Mária Valéria Bridge connecting Hungary and Slovakia. The interior is grand and spiritual, perfect for history and architecture lovers. A must-visit spot in Esztergom, especially during sunset! 🌅

We stopped here on a river cruise- we’d never heard of this place before but we will never forget it now and its interesting history and its imposing basilica. It’s definitely worth getting a tour so you can learn some of the fascinating history & interesting stories behind the facades. Plus you can walk to Slovakia and back !

🇬🇧 Esztergom – Hungary Situated on the right bank of the Danube, directly along the Slovak border, Esztergom is a city where history speaks from every street, and the soul of Hungary feels almost tangible. It is one of the country’s oldest and most iconic cities — a symbol of statehood and of the nation’s spiritual heritage. Archaeological findings show that the area of modern-day Esztergom has been inhabited since ancient times. Different peoples — Celts, Romans, Huns, Avars, and Germanic tribes — all left their mark here, adding their own layers to the landscape. During the Roman era, the settlement was known as Solva or Salvio Mansio. After the Hungarian conquest in the 10th–11th centuries, Esztergom became one of the key centers of the emerging Hungarian state: Prince Géza chose it as his seat of power, and his son Vajk (later King Stephen I, canonized Saint Stephen) was baptized and crowned here. During the Árpád dynasty, Esztergom was not only a political and royal center but also the spiritual heart of Hungary — it was from here that much of the country’s ecclesiastical life was organized. For a long time, it also served as the royal capital, until the mid-13th century, when the court and administration gradually moved to Buda and other cities. The city has witnessed wars and sieges as well: in 1543, Esztergom fell to the Ottoman Empire after a long siege. Many buildings and monuments were destroyed, yet even today the layers of history remain visible among the ruins and restored sites. The Basilica — Hungary’s largest church — is the crown of Esztergom. Built in the 19th century in classical style, with its monumental dome, vast interior, and ornate decorations, it dominates both the skyline and the spirit of the city. Behind the basilica rises Castle Hill, home to the remains of the ancient royal palace, fortifications, and the Castle Museum. The exhibitions here guide visitors through Esztergom’s story — from Roman times through the Middle Ages, the Ottoman period, and into modern history. The Víziváros (“Watertown”) district by the Danube offers a true journey through time with its narrow streets, fort walls, traces of Turkish baths and mosques, and the imposing Primatial Palace / Christian Museum. The Christian Museum holds Hungary’s largest ecclesiastical art collection, featuring medieval altarpieces, sculptures, liturgical treasures, and artworks from across Europe. The Bakócz Chapel, a rare Renaissance gem from the 16th century, was preserved and later integrated into the basilica itself. Baroque and classical churches, elegant stone houses, and ornate squares complete the city’s historical character. Despite wars and transformations — from the Ottoman era to the world wars — Esztergom has always rebuilt itself and continued to thrive. After the Treaty of Trianon, it became a border town, losing territory but never its culture, sanctity, or symbolic strength. As a guide, I see Esztergom not as a museum city, but as a living witness to Hungary’s struggles, faith, and artistry. For anyone seeking a deeper connection to Hungary’s roots — spiritually, architecturally, or emotionally — Esztergom is essential. — Krisztina 🌊 Local Guide

When you enter the Basilica, you are surrounded by a completely different atmosphere. The descriptions about its history are excellent, and the treasury is also very interesting- it’s worth taking the time to look through everything and read the related sources. The view from the dome is fabulous. The crypt, on the other hand, brings yet another completely different mood with it.

This is fantastically maintained place, of great cultural and religious importance. We have been there with 2 kids, enjoyed everything. You can see the church and park for free, we also payed to go in to the tower and tomb. The price was OK. People there were nice and helped us with everything. Everything is well organised here. There is a chic coffee place in the building, and many shops, and thanks to this even people who are not religious can enjoy the place. There are foodtrucks outside, so you will not leave hungry. But the church itself is more than enough, we hope to come here again, also to see the city beneath the church (Vizivaros). During sundays there is regular church service, so you cant get inside all of the time, but there are a lot of other things to see during that time. It is actually fantastic,that you can still come here to join the mass.

There was a service there when we visited, so it was closed for tourists. The entrance door is very interesting. There is something about leaves in Pecs, but we didn't quite understand what :)

This is a wonderful place to attend Mass, offering a peaceful and reverent atmosphere. The church itself is absolutely beautiful, with stunning architecture and intricate details that inspire a sense of awe and reflection. Whether you're a regular churchgoer or a visitor, it's a spiritually uplifting experience in a truly remarkable setting.

We didn’t go inside Pécs Cathedral, but even just walking around the outside was pretty awesome. The architecture is stunning—massive, elegant, and full of history. You can feel how old and important the place is just from the vibe it gives off. What really made the visit cool was exploring the ruins nearby. They’re tucked around the cathedral and give you this real sense of ancient layers—like you’re walking through different parts of history. Super atmospheric. Great photo ops, too. Definitely worth stopping by, even if you're not doing the full tour. Makes you want to come back and explore more next time!

All I can say is WOW! I have visited hundreds of churches in all my travels around the globe and this one ranks in the top 10. Who would have ever thought that a small city like Pécs would have such a gem. So worth visiting and taking a walk up the tower. Absolutely loved this place. Incredibly highly recommended. Cannot be missed!!!

Absolutely breathtaking! ⛪✨ Pécs Cathedral is a masterpiece of architecture and history. The interior is stunning 📸🌄 A true gem of the city! 💎

Beautiful Cathedral. You can even go up the tower on the South Side. Amazing views from the tower.

Stunning city! Love every minute of the holiday!! Love the place, beautiful architecture and a very nice walk around. If you want some facts about Pecs main attractions and some drone footage of the place I love, head to YouTube @pumalypp

Visiting the old water tower was a unique and enjoyable experience. The tower stands tall with a charming, historical presence, offering a glimpse into the area's past. Although it's not an active facility anymore, the architecture and the surrounding area are fascinating to explore. The peaceful setting makes it a great spot for a quick stop or even a quiet walk around. It’s a nice, off-the-beaten-path attraction for those interested in local history and landmarks.

The Siófok Water Tower is a quiet unique tower in the centre of Siófok. There is a great view from the tower. There used to be at café at the top of the tower, but it is unfortunately closed for good. Now there is a couple of exhibitions instead.

Great place to visit in Siofok. Although there isn't much to see inside other than two exhibitions, one about a sculptor that made some of the statues in Siofok and the history of the city, the views are great.

Is, ok... Not really big space to explore, 1 elevator was not working, and yes the view is nice.

An interesting spot with a great view over a large part of the city.

We got free tickets, because I am a wheelchair user and my brother, because he was my escort. Very nice and helpful staff. We were able to see only the first floor, but it was interesting. Its a shame the descriptions of the people there were just in Hungarian. Otherwise a great sight to see :)

Beautiful view to the surroundings close by Balaton lake! Interesting museum but sadly not much of information in English language.

Quite an interesting place. We recommend visiting if you are in the vicinity of Balaton. We did not buy tickets in advance, they were at the box office. Unfortunately, the museum tour was only in Hungarian. You can see the museum on your own in 20 minutes. If you do not know Hungarian, we recommend skipping the main part of the tour. At the end of the tour, a good colorful film about the caves is shown in the 3D cinema. The most interesting thing is the boat ride along the underground river. This is exactly what it is worth coming here for. It is a short but very interesting trip.

A fascinating underground cave right in the middle of the city, where you can take a small boat through winding tunnels of crystal-clear water. The ride is fairly short (about 15 minutes), but absolutely breathtaking. 🚤💎 The boats hold up to four people, and you paddle on your own, which makes the experience even more fun and personal. Some passages are quite narrow, so if you’re claustrophobic, you might want to skip this attraction — but it’s nothing extreme or frightening, just a bit snug in places. We visited during the autumn school holidays in Hungary, on a weekday, and had no problem buying tickets on the spot — the wait was minimal. The museum exhibition could use a little updating, but overall, it’s a unique and memorable experience that’s definitely worth it. 🌊✨

Such a surprising magical place, located in the heart of the town, that was the highlight of our trip to Hungary, the water are so clear, the emerald colors are real!!! And there is no bad smell. A must do! Definitely!

Very well organised, good tourist attraction. Recommended to but tickets online in advance. Parking is available in the street front of the cave. The guide is well prepared and interesting. 40 minutes giud + 10 mins 3D video + 10 mins rowing.

The famous photos you know are the end of the route. And that's actually the highlight for tourists, which is a shame. The route itself includes guidance only in Hungarian, then there's a video in a movie theater, also only in Hungarian , all the way you pass by the representatives who need to connect with guided listening in English through the app. Then at the end you reach the line for the boats. If you're lucky, you'll only wait half an hour. The boat route is short but stunning and worth the wait. By the way, if your line reaches the stairs, I estimate that the wait has been an hour or more, not sure it's worth it but you paid and you're there.... Up to 3 people can get on the boat. The route, I estimate, was 10 minutes.

The cave is a fantastic place! Unfortunately, the guided tour is only in Hungarian. However, the short boat ride inside the cave (about 10 minutes) is a truly unique experience.

Lovely river but too short. 15 min from start till end. Many problems with online tickets. It was impossible to buy 3 tickets in the same entrance. The solution is to buy 3 at different hours, and have a hope that the staff will allow you to entrance. For me worked😉

World’s largest swimmable natural thermal - it’s fun for a couple of hours. Trees provide some shade. Cards accepted for entry but need a cash deposit for swimming floats - worthwhile to aid a relaxing dip. We found that the water had a soporific effect and led to a great night’s sleep!

Lake Heviz is a place where people seek health in a thermal lake rich in minerals. You won't feel the benefits after just one visit, but it's interesting to see. The changing rooms weren't very clean, and you need to bring slippers.

Update. Nice atmosphere and buildings although a bit undermaintained. For me it was good but my girlfriend with psoriasis had a lot of issues with her skin after bading the water for 1 hour. Hurted for hours. BUT: one day later it was way better than before. Didn’t expect that.

The lake is truly healing; after one session, you notice a relaxing effect, and after several sessions, it's already therapeutic. The infrastructure is very convenient, with everything you need. It's a quiet, nature-filled retreat – just perfect. Unfortunately, the main bathhouse building is closed, but despite that, there's enough space for everyone. I especially liked that they offer water gymnastics and stretching there.

Really good area for relax with restaurant and bar. Clear water.

What a joy this lake is! It's the largest swimmable thermal lake in the world. Its temperature is ideal, and the effects on the body are felt after a few days. Joint pain disappears as if by magic, and the skin is soft. Swimming among the water lilies, with swallows dancing overhead, is a dream. The conditions are excellent, very well organized, and the price is decent. The mud treatment is a plus that we highly recommend. Magical! We hope to return one day... We would have liked the staff to be a little more friendly and welcoming, and a better communication in English ;-)

This is a lovely thermal lake which also is huge. Everyone gets an armband that also gives you a personal locker for your belongings. Note that you can not pick any locker you have to blip the armband at the screen when entering the locker room and then you are assigned a locker. I recommend going around the lake to the "relax" section where there are a lot fewer people and a much more calm setting. The lake is quite warm so do not expect to get cooled down on a warm summer day.

We were surprised when our guide Ante told us that he is taking us to a cemetery to see it. When we reached there then we realised it is much more than a cemetery. The entrance was beautiful and so was the inside with excellent arcades, sculptures and garden, It had a lot of history behind it which was explained to us. It was built by famous architect Hermann Bolle The people of different religions like Christians, Muslims and Jews were buried there. The local people come here just to use beautiful garden. We were surprised when told that rich people buy their grave place here well in advance and it is expensive.

Visiting Mirogoj Cemetery felt more like a stroll through a serene sculpture park than a traditional burial ground. The arcades designed by Hermann Bollé are simply breathtaking—graceful arches, ivy-covered facades, and dignified mausoleums that reflect both sorrow and beauty. Despite some areas still showing damage from past earthquakes, the atmosphere remains profoundly tranquil. This place isn’t just architecturally stunning; it’s a cultural treasure trove, housing the graves of some of Croatia’s most notable figures. Paths lined with horse chestnut trees add a poetic charm, making it a contemplative escape from the bustle of downtown Zagreb. Tip: Don't attempt to walk from the Old Town—it’s a pretty steep hike! Public transport, especially buses 106 or 226, make the trip much easier. Whether you're a history buff, an architecture lover, or just someone seeking quiet reflection, Mirogoj is a must-see.

Beautiful cemetery, great place for a peaceful walk. Very calm and quiet for a longer visit in Zagreb.

Mirogoj Cemetery is a huge and beautiful place, even from the outside. The green domes and ivy-covered walls look amazing, despite repair barriers. It feels peaceful with lots of trees and history. You can’t enter the arcades due to earthquake damage, but it’s still worth seeing. A short bus ride from the city makes it easy to visit.

The Monumental Cemetery Mirogoj is a cemetery park that is considered to be among the more noteworthy landmarks in the City of Zagreb. It is a Member of ASCE and part of European Cemeteries Route. Mirogoj is considered a very significant cemetery for landscape, as an art gallery and as a book of Croatian history. An easy tram hop from the city centre, the beautiful tree-lined cemetery of Mirogoj is a rarely visited attraction. Founded in 1876 and designed by Hermann Bollé, few visitors reach Mirogoj, but those who do discover an expansive space filled with excellent sculptures and tiled arcades. The grounds of Mirogoj provide a peaceful retreat from the city center. The sheer size of the place means you rarely bump into another person; the only sounds you hear are bird song and the wind rustling the trees. Considered one of the best landmarks of the city and, some claim, one of the most magnificent cemeteries in Europe where over 300,000 souls are buried.

I walked here from the city centre. It is not as impressive as some Italian cemeteries (like Bologna or Verona) but still very nice. I was dissapointed that the arcades were not accessible due to constructions works (hapenning all over the city by that time).

It really is just a cemetery. The gorgeous view is only the gates (?) enclosing the cemetery. No entrances fee, and nice for a quick visit.

The cathedral has been under renovation for a few years now, but it still is a pleasant sight to see. Under renovation means no access to the inside as well; was gated off for the majority of the time. It is the second tallest building in Croatia and the most monumental sacral building of Gothic architecture southeast of the Alps.

Looks interesting from the outside, but it's temporarily closed (due to further renovations?). There are some old Medieval-looking city walls and fortifiations right next to the cathedral, but those are also inaccessible (at least from the sides nearest the cathedral) due to the work being done.

It's unfortunate that this cathedral is being renovated and temporarily closed barricaded with scaffolding. This renovation seems forever. At the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, gold sculpture is there to behold.

It was closed for renovation during my visit, but the massive artistic structure looked very impressive from the outside.

What I could see of it was nice but both towers were covered in construction unfortunately. Had hoped it would be less since in most photos only part of one tower was covered but oh well

It’s amazing architecture, especially during Christmas they have market at night . Various kinds of food stall , my favourite no-alcoholic tea and sweets are served. Even at-10*c, this place is buzzing and lots of things to do. Cathedral itself a nice place to visit but it has been years that they started renovating. However, it hasn’t finished. Hopefully they will finish soon.

The cathedral is located in the center of Zagreb. From the very beginning, its size catches the eye. Additionally, it has interesting decorations. It makes a huge impression in real life. Unfortunately, I could not see it in its entirety, because it was under renovation. Nevertheless, I recommend seeing it!

Zotter Chocolate Factory is a fantastic and exciting place to visit. The tour is beautifully designed, allowing you to walk through the factory and see every step of the chocolate-making process. The highlight is, of course, the unlimited tasting – you can try as many types and flavors of chocolate as you like, and it feels like a dream for any chocolate lover. While the price may seem high at first, you can easily spend several hours here, and the ticket also includes access to the small zoo and outdoor areas, making it a fun and relaxing day. A wonderful program for families and chocolate fans alike.

We, two adults, really enjoyed everything. We spent as long as we wanted inside the factory and sampled an incredible amount of excellent chocolate, including seeing the chocolate-making process. The entire tour was well-designed and stylish, with excellent views of the edible zoo, which is also beautiful. The large, well-maintained grounds are a pleasure to explore for both children and adults. I would have liked to have been able to buy coffee during the tour; that would have made tasting the chocolate even more enjoyable. The company store offers a delightful variety and a fantastic selection of gift sweets. We'll definitely be back.

An amazing experience. We visited during Lange Nacht der Museen(get ready to wait during the day) but totally worth during normal days too. There are insanely many chocolates to taste. From cocoa beans from different countries to dipped fruits, different stirring times to percentages. Impossible to try all the chocolates.

An absolutely amazing experience. It's located in a wonderful part of Austria. I highly recommend it to everyone - both kids and adults alike. We spent 3 hours just in the factory, and afterwards it was great to have something savory to eat outside. 😃 You can tase an unbelievable amount of delicous cohocolate. Afterwards, you can also stock up on your favorites in the shop. Most importanly, you can truly feel that this family-run-business is made with their heart and soul. I WISH EVERYONE COULD EXPERIENCE WHAT REAL BEAN-TO-BAR CHOCOLATE IS LIKE. 🤎 Vielen Dank!🍫

The chocolate factory proved to be a fantastic destination for adults, though it was a bit challenging with our group of six children across two families. The tour starts strong with a very informative video that expertly explains the entire chocolate-making process, which the grown-ups thoroughly enjoyed. ​The true highlight is the factory tour's tasting experience: they claim to offer over 300 different samples, and while I gave it my best shot, it's safe to say no one can taste them all! The venue thoughtfully includes a pleasant "zoo" area with a few animals at the end, providing a nice space for kids to run around.

It is recommended to buy tickets in advance for faster entry. You can taste an incredible amount of chocolate (around 300 (!)), it is worth eating a little bit of everything because it can be too much by the end. 😅 I recommend it to everyone, it's worth the price!

A must visit, amazing guidance and tastings that will make you unable to stop eating the amazing variety of chocolates there. It is recommended to take a trip to the sculpture garden and see the animals.

Wonderful castle with rich history and, luckily for us, many fun activities. We visited the Castle at the time of the Art Festival, where art workshops for kids were taking place. It was wonderful! At the castle you can see some interesting musical instruments, traditional masks, weapons and so on. We also enjoyed visiting the musum shop, which featured handmade products from local artists. Very worth the visit!

This is a lovely place to explore and to view the city below; it is also home to the one of the two oldest vine plants in the world and both are in Slovenia, this particular one being in the central court yard of the Castle.

If you are histoty nerd and you didnt visit Ptuj castle, you are missing out. The most beautiful castle in the region with spectacular view and museum.

Beautiful place, and lots of interesting stuff on display inside. Worth a visit.

Good place to visit. I didn’t pay to go inside but the outside was enough.

Nice place to visit. I was scared of rats ;) (see pictures)

Another day, another castle! Great view on the city.

Amazing castle with lovely views. The best part of visiting was a man who was explaining the history of print and did a preformance how in the past people were doing it. For 8€ you could get your personal cusomized souvenire! Be careful on the forest path that leads to castle - it is not as easy as they say!

Worth a visit. The ticket price is appropriate. You should go early in the morning, then it's hot, or go in the afternoon when the temperature low. The torture dungeon is interesting. The view from the tower is superb. Parking is free.

Beautiful old castle. The staff were really fun and had games etc. for the kids. They loved running around the grounds. We were there around 10am and it was really quiet. But when we were leaving (after 1.5hrs as there is so much to see) it was getting more busy. The view from the very top is incredible, the story behind the castle just as good.

Climp up to the mountain and you'll see the beauty of Celje and big part of Slovenian history. The castle isn't very big but it's an absolutely recommended place to visit. You can drive up, but climbing is an adventure itself.

Celje's Castle has a wonderful viewing points over Celje, hills and fields. Castle has a long history and you will be able to find here also historical artifacts. Really worth visiting and nice thirsty minutes walk path from Celje's center.

A long drive up, but worth it. Very reasonable entry fees with discounts for children and the older ones Lots to see. Well worth the visit

Less crowded than othe Slovenian castles but just as (or maybe even more) interesting! Nice staff and breathtaking surroundings.

Beautiful view of the entire city! The castle is well preserved, and there’s a small café inside. The entrance fee is €3. As you go up, there’s a place to park under the trees, and you can also visit the church nearby. If you’re in the city or the surrounding area, it’s definitely worth a visit. You won’t need more than 20–30 minutes.

Small castle but looks amazing with the beautiful Croatian flag.There is a magnificent view from here. There is a small cafe here for a snack and a drink . A very steep staircase with many steps leads to the castle. But it is difficult for the elderly and children. It's better to take bus 2 or 8

This is a great spot to walk to from the heart of Rijeka. You can either take the stairs (there are at least two sets to choose from) or the side roads. The castle is free to visit, has some interesting architectural features and views given its elevation above the city. I was here on a fall feast day, and there were several tour groups at the castle. I would imagine that it would get crowded during the height of the tourist season.

Entering was free. We spent 1.5 hours wondering around, bigger place than we thougth, it was beautiful. The garden and towers are kept in good shape, view to the canal and the city was also stunning from here. You can enjoy a coffee our a meal also.

Interesting castle with a beautiful views, a small museum and a café on central terrace. Nice stroll through the nearby park. Trsat castle looks specially nice in winter time.

The castle offers a beautiful view of the city and the sea. The entrance fee is cheap, you can only pay with a credit card. There is a small cafe bar and museum here.

Great walk towards the castle if you have a bit of a condition because it requires quite some stairs from Rijeka. But it's more than worth it, amazing views and afterwards a nice drink inside while watching the sun go down.
