Eclectic architecture, enchanting scenery, elegant places to stay, together with our Global Luxury Luggage Partner Globe-Trotter, we explore Hungary in the run-up to the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The Hungarian Grand Prix takes place at the famous Hungaroring in Magyaród. Although the race has a century-long history, its modern incarnation began intriguingly as the first race behind the Iron Curtain in 1986.
The Hungaroring has undergone changes over the years but still retains its reputation as a challenging track for overtaking. While lacking long straights, it compensates with slow, technical corners. In short, conquering the Hungaroring is no easy feat. One of the most popular events in Europe, racing here has many happy memories for Aston Martin Aramco driver Fernando Alonso, as it was the scene of the Spaniard's maiden Grand Prix win in 2003.
Besides enjoying the exhilarating F1 action, consider spending time in Budapest – the cosmopolitan capital – exploring its ruin bars, or head to Lake Balaton for some summer sun.
History comes alive
Take a stroll along the scenic Danube, starting from the Parliament of Hungary – a building often noted for its resemblance to the fictional Hogwarts. Appreciate the Hapsburg Imperial architecture and enjoy the fresh air on Margaret's Island, situated in the middle of the river.
For sultry summer days, visit the art deco Lido complex known as Palatinus. When it's time to rest, consider staying at the celebrity-favourite Kempinski Corvinus Hotel, located in the city's main square.
Indulge in Hungarian cuisine at ES Bisztro and enjoy drinks at Blue Fox. Located in the heart of Budapest, Spago by Wolfgang Puck offers a sophisticated dining experience that masterfully combines Californian cuisine with Hungarian and global flavours.
