Esztergom

Esztergom is one of Hungary’s oldest towns and home to the country’s largest church, the stunning Esztergom Basilica, which towers above the Danube. The view from the dome stretches across the river into Slovakia, while the nearby castle museum adds extra layers to the town’s royal past. Just an hour from Budapest, Esztergom is ideal for a day trip combining history, scenery, and riverside walks.
