Don't miss out, the quaint town of Szentendre is a must-visit for every art lover, brimming with a rich artistic atmosphere!

⛳ You may not have heard of the Hungarian town of Szentendre, but you should know Jolin Tsai's music video 'Madrid Wonders', right? The filming location for this MV is in Szentendre. Due to the local pronunciation being similar to 'Shandan Dan', it is also known as 'Shandan Dan'. ⛩️ Szentendre is located around Budapest, Hungary, about 20 kilometers from Budapest, with the Danube River flowing through it, accompanied by blooming flowers and evergreen trees, offering a picturesque landscape. 🏕️ In the 14th century, a large number of Serbian and Greek wandering artists came to this paradise-like town to escape wars. Among them were painters, sculptors, and various craftsmen, who gradually developed and created a unique cultural and architectural style. By the end of the 19th century, it attracted many Hungarian painters to this charming town. Now, it is one of Hungary's most important tourist destinations and the 'exhibition hall' of the Hungarian modern art movement. ✔️ Check-in Tips: 1⃣️ It's best to set your own position when visiting the central square to avoid getting lost. Here you can find a Baroque cross monument (built in 1736), the town's residents are mostly Orthodox Christians, and the streets are lined with Baroque and Rococo buildings, quiet and serene, with an ancient charm. 2️⃣ The town's colorful houses are closely packed, each house and shop has its own style, bright and lively. Wandering through the winding alleys paved with cobblestones, it's easy to get lost in the charm. 3⃣️ The town is very quiet in the morning, with only the wind and flowers slipping by, as if transcending the mundane world, not only forgetting the troubles of life but also making for great photos. 4⃣️ The town is small, but it is home to various churches, craft shops, galleries, workshops, museums, bars, cafes, etc., most of which open around 10:00. At this time, buying some small goods and idly sipping coffee is extremely pleasant. 5⃣️ Taking a walk along the Danube River is also very nice, with beautiful lakes and mountains pleasing to the eye. There are some long benches where you can sit down and listen to the sounds of nature, waiting for the breeze to caress your face and the birds to sing delightfully. 6⃣️ The town's cuisine is also worth looking forward to. I only browsed for over 2 hours and left before noon. 7⃣️ Transportation: From Batthyany ter (Metro Red Line M2) subway station in Budapest (transfer inside the station), take the HEV suburban train H5 to the end, then walk to your destination.
