Őrség

This eastern land of Hungary is really special humpy, shaped by streams. Fresh green meadows, pine, oak and bleech tree forests and cristal clean streams and little villages hidden on the top of the hills are completing each other in a wonderful landscape. It's at the border with Austria, so for a long time it used to be a natural border without any population, that did very good for the nature. The population is still very low so it was staying almost untouched.
We could have an amazing bike trip there in the summer! :D

Ludwig Museum

http://www.ludwigmuseum.hu/

"Ludwig Museum - Museum of Contemporary Art collects and displays masterworks of modern and contemporary art. The permanent collection contains valuable pieces of American pop art (Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg etc.). Yet focusing on Eastern and Central European art, it also puts a special emphasis on presenting the Hungarian art of the 60's to recent days in an international context. Besides, temporary exhibitions showcase leading artists of the international scene as well as the best-known Hungarian masters. Be sure to explore the Museum's colourful place which is indeed a contemporary work of art as well."


The location is in the south of Pest on the riverside, where you can easily get by the tram no.2 or by bike. It's a kind of bikeride like to Serralves ;)

Szentendrei sziget (Szentendre island)

It's a wonderful green island of the river Danube in the north, that we can easily reach by bike. We can ride the bike to Szentendre town from Budapest, that is about 1,5-2 hours, or go by HÉV (interurban train) in 40 min. From Szentendre it's about 1,5 hours to get to the little pond on the island by bike, where we are standing with Cat on the photo. In warmer days we can also have a swim there ;)
On the way there we can cross a bridge to the island and the way back take a ferry, or the opposite.

...and some other photos of the island from the internet...
