Hungary Sites

Pecs

With so many outstanding buildings it is no surprise Pécs is the country’s most popular tourist destination after Budapest.

The unique character and atmosphere of Pécs is largely determined by the fact that it is a university city. With more than thirty five thousand national and international students at the University of Pécs, the youthful energy of the city, the busy street life, squares and places of entertainment can be sensed on simple weekdays as well as during the time of large-scale festivals
The colourful and eventful programmes and festivals are hosted by the historic sites and buildings of the city. The early Roman burial chambers, the medieval buildings, the different sites of religious history, the streets paved with several thousand year-old stones all radiate a unique atmosphere. Nevertheless, there is no sensation of a vanished past, since taking a step beyond the old-fashioned exhibition halls, contemporary forms of art are continuously entering the public spaces of the city as well. The spirit of modern art penetrates into Pécs. New works of art and performances are constantly being created, inspired by the atmosphere of the city, whose unique nature lies right in the interaction between the city and art.

All of this is taken for granted by the residents of the city. Others, however, can only understand it if they visit Pécs and get first-hand experience of the colours, flavours and voices of the city.
Why not plan to visit both Budapest and Pécs during 2010 when the latter deservedly becomes European Capital of Culture and take advantage of regular low cost flights from across the UK
