5 Things You Should NEVER Do in Hungary ???????? Don't Do This in Budapest
In today's Hungary travel vlog, we discuss 5 Things You Should NEVER Do in Hungary and Don't Do This in Budapest.
There are a few other posts about Hungary: 25 Things to do in Budapest, Hungary Travel Guide, DO'S AND DON’T IN HUNGARY, Visit Budapest - Five Things You Will Love & Hate about Budapest, Hungary, and 3 Crazy Things About BUDAPEST. But none really touch on the things you should never do in Hungary. So I decided to make this travel vlog!
This isn't a complete list of what not to do in Hungary , just some things I observed from my recent trip to Budapest, Hungary. If you are Hungarian, a Hungarian expat, or living in Hungary and you have any other suggestions of things related to the topic of don't do this in Hungary , make sure you comment below. Make sure you also try Palinka! Palinka is a fruit brandy! If offered Palinka it is rude to turn it down.
Hungary tourism is a big driver of the Hungarian economy, so they do overlook somethings that tourist do, but try to respect the cultural differences when you travel Hungary.
Hopefully you can use this to supplement your Hungary travel guide advice and not be viewed as a rude tourist.
I love Hungary - don't let the rules or culture differences keep you from visiting. Just be mindful of those cultural differences and enjoy this awesome country.
5 Things You Should Never Do In Hungary
Let me start off by saying, if I had to recommend just one city in Europe to visit it would probably be Budapest. It’s got everything, old world charm but in a modern city, the architecture is amazing and exactly what you think of when you think European city, it’s very safe, the food is amazing and it’s soooo affordable compared to comparable cities.
1 - Never clink glasses or bottles together. There was a revolution in Hungary in 1848 that was defeated. Legend has it that Austrians celebrated in Vienna by toasting and clinking their glasses. Hungarians vowed not to cheers with glasses for 150 years. While that time frame ended in 1998 - many Hungarians still do not cheers! It was actually against the law until the mid 1990s!
2 - Never make the Hungry Hungary joke to a Hungarian. It’s one of those things that non Hungarians say to Hungarians and well….it’s just not funny. Don’t do that!!!!
3 - Never forget to tip. After spending 8 months in countries where tipping isn’t customary and sometimes considered offensive, I often forget to tip! In Budapest and Hungary in general tipping is customary. The acceptable tipping rate is around 15%. Side note: Don’t say thank you until you’ve paid your tab. Saying thank you when you pay your tab lets the server know you’re done and you don’t expect any change. So make sure you don’t do that if you want change back.
4 - Never refuse Palinka. Palinka is a fruit brandy that is a favorite with Hungarians. Hungarians like to say Palinka in small amounts is medicine, in large amounts a remedy! You don’t drink Palinka alone - it’s a drink Hungarians have with friends. It’s is a big no-no to turn down Palinka if it’s offered to you.
5 - Never say Buda-PEST. That’s the quickest way to get on a Hungarian’s bad side. It’s Buddah - PESHT. Side note: DONT CALL IT Bucharest! That’s in Romania! I made that mistake…didn’t turn out well for me! In my defense I had one to many Palinka!!!!
Also, never miss a chance to hang out at one of the Budapest ruin bars.

IN THE MOOD FOR BUDAPEST | What To See, Do & Eat in Budapest | The Ultimate Hungary Travel Guide
Budapest is undoubtedly one of Europe’s most remarkable jewels, the sparkling pearl of the Danube. It’s a city with a trove full of treasures, with an expansive history that gave birth to the Buda castle district where you’d feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
On the cosmopolitan city of Pest, saunter through UNESCO-listed boulevards that feature a stunning array of Art Nouveau buildings, discover countless world-class museums that you’d want to get lost into and visit basilicas and opera houses where you’d wax lyrical under their spell. Budapest knows how to live well, and has a proclivity to sophistication. In this city, you’ll find gorgeous century-old coffeehouses and sumptuous restaurants where you can whet your appetites in the city’s gastronomy that’s brimming with cross-continental cuisines and the fantastic Hungarian food and wine scene.
This is a city that also balances lifestyle and wellbeing, where you can relax and blow some steam in some of the city’s most incredible offerings, its magical thermal waters and spas. Then, like a jewel on its crown, there’s the spectacular river Danube, one of the great rivers of the world, flowing through Budapest, with riverside banks that are so historically significant, they’re preserved as UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Enjoy this latest Budapest episode, and hope you'll be able to savour and enjoy this protean city as much as I did!

Szolnok
Szolnok is the county seat of Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok county in central Hungary. Its location on the banks of the Tisza river, at the heart of the Great Hungarian Plain, has made it an important cultural and economic crossroads for centuries.
Szolnok is located in the heart of the Great Hungarian Plain, at the confluence of the Tisza and Zagyva rivers. It lies about 100 kilometres (62 mi) east-southeast from Budapest. The climate of the area is continental, with hot summers following relatively mild winters. The region is one of the sunniest in Europe; the average precipitation is about 490 millimetres (19 in) annually.
Szolnok was named for the first steward of the city, Szaunik or Zounok. The town was first officially mentioned under the name Zounok in 1075. In the following centuries it was recorded as Zounok, Saunic, Zounuc, and Zawnuch. The variety of spellings likely comes from phonetic discrepancies occurring when Hungarian sounds - originally written in runic Old Hungarian script - were recorded using the Latin alphabet. Another possibility revolves around speculation that the name Szaunik was not a personal name after all, but rather a title relating to the significant salt trade (salt, Hungarian: só) in the area.
In most other languages, the city's Hungarian name is used without derivation (for example French: Szolnok, Spanish: Szolnok). The city has its own name in a few languages (for example German: Sollnock or Zolnock, Romanian: Solnoca, Russian: Сольнок), deriving from these languages' historical relationship to the city.

You Wouldn't Believe Restaurant Like This Exists In Hungary!! BEST Duck + Goulash Soup!
If you are looking for the best Hungarian food and quality service along with spectacular atmosphere, with traditional folk music playing in the background while you enjoy your food.. This is the place to be.. Sári Csárda! Satisfaction at its fullest. In this video I had arrived in a village at a beautiful wooden Hungarian restaurant with horses on the fields and so much open space and greenery. I wasin search for a traditional Hungarian experience and I believe I sure did find the right place. The exterior and interior was absolutely eye catching. I realised inside the restaurant had some Hungarian decorations. For starters I ordered a traditional Hungarian Goulash beef soup which was really creamy and rich, the beef was absolutely delicious. For my main course I had ordered duck which was actually the best duck I ever tried. The meat was so soft, juicy and tender served with kapusta (red cabbage) with mashed potatoes and creamy sauce, the presentation of the food was outstanding. I had a Hungarian beer called Dreher and shot of their traditional peach palinka (brandy). While I was enjoying my meal I was listening to traditional Hungarian music which they were playing on background and that also gave it a traditional Hungarian feeling.
