Ten heritage places in one September loop through Hungary: the Danube capital of Budapest and the river bend at Szentendre and Esztergom; the Benedictine abbey of Pannonhalma and the early-Christian tombs of Pécs to the south; then the puszta of Hortobágy, the wine hills of Tokaj, the caves of Aggtelek, baroque Eger and the Palóc village of Hollókő. Timed for the Hungarian Heritage Days of late September, when working monuments open their doors. Each stop links to its full entry in the archive; download the GPX or KML for your own navigator.

Guides, associations and cultural operators build their own routes here: pick the stops from the archive, add your notes, and the map, the GPX and the printable version come out on their own. Your programme gets a permanent page, your events go on the city pages people read while planning — and if you sell your route as a road-book or a virtual tour, you receive 80% of the price net of tax.
