General presentation
Kecskemét et Kiskunság
Art Nouveau architecture of Kecskemét, orchards, sandy plains, Kiskunság wetlands and more discreet puszta atmosphere.
Kecskemét, Kiskunság and Bugac give the most telling landmarks of Kecskemét and Kiskunság. Together, they make up a destination where urban life, the countryside, wetlands and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 1 to 3 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: summer heat and very seasonal nature. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Kecskemét
Kecskemét Surprises by its Art Nouveau centre, where the city hall, the Cifrapalota Palace and the colourful facades play with ceramics, floral motifs and curved shapes. The city also keeps a soft plain, linked to orchards, markets and roads to Kiskunság.
Town or village
Kiskunság
Kiskunság protects a puszta from sandy plains, salt ponds, meadows and wetlands between Danube and Tisza. The landscape requires a careful look: birds, herds, isolated farms and flat horizons replace spectacular reliefs, with a beautiful light when the wind cleans the sky.
Town or village
Bugac
Bugac gives access to the Hungarian puszta's imagination, with farms, horses, sandy trails and equestrian demonstrations depending on the periods. The experience can be touristic, but it remains talking to see the large areas of Kiskunság, the herds and pastoral traditions of the plain.
