A Day in Szentendre

After some time in Budapest, you might visit Szentendre (pronounced Sen-ten-dreh), just north of Budapest on the Danube and one of the most-visited spots in all of Hungary. Take the HÉV (regional train) from Budapest's Batthyány tér metro for a 45-minute ride.

Visit the Margit Kovács Museum and see the interesting collection of the late Margit Kovács. She was primarily a ceramicist, and her depictions of peasant life in Hungary are charming. Have a late lunch at the Aranysárkány Vendéglo, and take a walk along the river. Then spend your afternoon exploring the many shops, museums, churches, and galleries in town. Fo tér, the main drag, is enticing, but explore all the side streets of this small, manageable town. Try Chez Nicolas Restaurant Kígyó utca 10.
