Private: Hollóko, UNESCO World Heritage Village, from Budapest
Travel northeast from Budapest to the charming village of Hollóko, the only settlement in Hungary recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nestled in rolling hills, this 17th- and 18th-century village offers a remarkable glimpse into the country’s rural past, where whitewashed houses with thatched roofs preserve the authentic architecture of the Palóc people.
During a guided walk, travelers explore the village’s traditional homes and small museums, including the Village Museum, the Doll Museum, and the Weaving House. The visit continues with a climb to the medieval fortress overlooking the settlement, offering sweeping views of the surrounding countryside.
The experience concludes with a taste of traditional Palóc cuisine at a local restaurant, an opportunity to enjoy the warm hospitality and timeless charm that make Hollóko a living monument to Hungary’s heritage.
