In this video we give a quick tour of Kőszeg, a town in Hungary full of charm and unique local customs.
If you are looking to find hidden gems in Hungary outside of Budapest, Kőszeg is an ideal destination, and since it's close to the border with Austria, you can even go to day trips there from here.
Kőszeg in Hungary is a cute little town that jumps right off the pages of fairy tales and its folk still have faith in humanity! We visited #Kőszeg which is right next to the border between #Hungary and Austria. It is a charming little #town that reminded me of the Grimm brothers! Besides the wonderful center it offers plenty of interesting stories, unique customs and many opportunities to go on hiking journeys! It's a town with so much to offer!
It is a historic town with unique tales to tell, so if you are interested in medieval history, then feel free to learn more about how the local castle guard defended the town against the Turkish army!
One interesting local custom is the so called "becsület kassza" which is an honorary payment method where people leave their goods outside of their houses and have faith in you who will leave the right amount of payment when taking some of the items they sell.
