Synopsis

When you arrive in Hungary from the east it is the first place you come to where you sense a western atmosphere, and when you reach it from the west it is the land where you begin to notice the flavours of the east. Only recently emerged from 40 years of political isolation and geographical remoteness, Hungary is at last able to offer its beauty and conflicting cultures to the world. Today it is possible to discover the Magyars' century old traditions, the art and history of a proud resourceful people and to discover wonderful landscapes on the way; an unspoiled wildness at the heart of a built-up Europe. Places and History: celebrating the world's most beautiful cities and its most fascinating and exotic regions. Celebrating their historic and cultural importance, and their natural beauty. The history of each location is shown in original prints and paintings. The modern scene is explored in glorious colour photographs and with a travel writer's experienced eye.
