Gyula

Put on your walking shoes and take a tour around the Körös rivers. The experience of a lifetime is just around the corner. Gyula and Békéscsaba, two towns just a stone’s throw from the Romanian border, attract visitors and tourists with their unique atmosphere.

If you are looking for sweet culinary experiences, Gyula is the place to go, with its traditional, hand-made cakes and bonbons. The Hundred‑Year‑Old Confectionery is one of the oldest such shops in the country and has been open since 1840. The Biedermeier furniture is the cherry on top of the proverbial cake, as this place is all about cakes and sweets. Enjoy a Rákóczi cottage cheese cake with a nice cup of coffee. The region of Orosháza has been renowned for hennery since the 18th century, and this is where one of the best-quality foie gras in Hungary comes from. However, if you want to eat something more substantial, try the famous local dishes of Slovak origin: cigánka (made of offal), brindza (strong sheep milk cheese) or haluska (dumplings).
