Drive from Budapest to Hungary’s most romantic little town, Szentendre, in half an hour. On the way pass the 2000 years old ruin-city of the Romans. On arrival, make a walking tour in the artists' town. Szentendre is like an Italian village with narrow, winding streets, small houses, and unusual history. There is always handicraft fair and galleries of contemporary art. If you like shopping, this is paradise!There are two exhibitions in Szentendre, for which people come from all over Europe.
One is the Microminiatures Museum: a collection of wonderful microscopic artworks made by Mykola Syadristy from Ukraine. The objects are so small that you have to look through a microscope to admire them! It is strongly recommended to visit this small but incredible Micro-Art Museum.
The other highlight of Szentendre is the beautiful, touching exhibition of a Hungarian peasant artist lady, Margit Kovacs. Her clay statues and figurative pottery stand alone in 20th century Hungarian art, and are part of Hungarian Heritage.
Besides, Szentendre houses the smallest Synagogue in Hungary.
