Welcome to Hungary

A capital of baths on the Danube, a language like no other and the inventors of the Rubik's Cube and the ballpoint pen.

Hungary lies in the Carpathian Basin, a land of plains, hills, thermal springs and the long Lake Balaton. Its people came from the east more than 1,100 years ago and kept a language unrelated to their neighbours'. Hungarians gave the world the Rubik's Cube, the ballpoint pen, the discovery of vitamin C and holography. See the treasures of the National Museum, the Old Masters of the Museum of Fine Arts and Queen Sisi's palace at Gödöllő. Plan your museum days on museumtickets.com, then try a bowl of gulyás and a warm chimney cake.

Verborgen verhaal

The cube that confused the world

A Budapest teacher made a puzzle to teach his students.

Lees het verhaalSluiten

In 1974 Ernő Rubik, a young teacher of architecture in Budapest, made a cube of small blocks that could turn without falling apart, to help his students think about space. It took him a month to solve it himself. The Magic Cube went on sale in Hungary in 1977 and became one of the best-selling toys in history.
