KecskemétAn easy 53-mile (86km) drive from Budapest, Kecskemét
(pronounced ketch-keh-mate) isn't well-known to outsiders but makes
a wonderful day or weekend trip. While the city is quite large with
more than 100,000 residents, Kecskemét has a uniquely small-town
charm with a town centre. With an abundance of wide streets and
open squares, walking around the sunny and scenic city centre,
peppered with colourful Art Nouveau buildings, is a pleasant
pastime. There are a number of attractions in Kecskemét that visitors
will enjoy, including the Schnapps distillery tours at the Pálinka
Museum, the Hungarian Photography Museum, the Museum of Hungarian
Folk Art and Handicrafts, and the beautiful architecture and art
collections at the City Hall. Kecskemét also has some very good
restaurants, and visitors can sample the local varieties of apricot
brandy made there. |
