Szeged

6 things to see

Szeged is the sunshine city of Hungary, with a huge cathedral square, famous paprika traditions, and student-driven low prices. The Votive Church and its vast Dom Square are free to admire, and the riverside walks along the Tisza cost nothing. The student crowd keeps cheap eateries and bars plentiful, and Szeged sits right by the Serbian border for a low-cost hop to Subotica.
