Step outside of time!

A beautiful park with ancient and primeval trees, thermal water known far and wide, a waterpark and a sauna world: all these await you at the Gyula Castle Spa. Békéscsaba also has a bath with a long history. Learn more about them.

The valley of the Körös rivers is one of the most important centres of Hungarian gastro-tourism. Gyulai and Csabai sausages and Békési pálinka are favourites not just among Hungarians, but are well known and liked beyond the country’s borders.

If you’re into active recreation, Gyula and the surrounding area have plenty of entertainment to offer. Once you have visited the county’s larger towns and tasted all the local food specialities, put on your hiking boots and discover the region’s forests, plains and waterways.

If you love painting or want to know more about Mihály Munkácsy, Békéscsaba is the place to be: with a museum and a memorial house dedicated to this artist, you will often “come face to face” with him on the streets as well.

The Castle Bath of Gyula is perfect for family relaxation, wellness, sports and saunas, but you may also want to try them for rehabilitation after an injury or for the medicinal pools and treatments.

Both are flavoured with paprika and, of course, are delicious, but do you know the difference between Csabai and Gyulai sausages? And what kind of pálinka should you drink to “wash down” the delicacies you taste in this region?
