What To Expect
The path is called Startrail and leads to the Church of Pilis with stunning views and is similar to the stations of Christ, but in this case it is not about what happened to Him during his last way, but we meet the most important figures of Hungarian history, their figures are carved into wood. Why was the church built at this place? Are we, Hungarians the descendents of the HUNs of Attila or not? When did we arrive to present-day Hungary? How did our original, runic script looked like? Who are the MAGYARs then? COME and SEE

5.00I chose this program because I wanted something historical, spiritual and walking in Nature at the same time. It was a great choice, Zsolt is fun to be with and has considerable knowledge about these places which I enjoyed listening to. Excellent organizing as well.
