Introducing Szentendre
Szentendre is a town that has changed little in appearance since the 18th century. For some this is a blessing, and for others a curse; its cobblestone alleyways and skyline of church spires are indeed something special, but the hoards of tourists jostling you as you attempt to appreciate the scene can at times simply be too much. Either way you look at it, Szentendre is worth visiting - however brief - and if its architecture doesn't impress, its plethora of art museums and galleries should. Note that Szentendre is best avoided on weekends in summer, and between November and mid-March much of the town shuts down on weekdays.
