Holloko, Hungary by paula soler-moya

Holloko is a Paloc ethnographic village in Hungary. The village is located in Nograd county, lying in a valley surrounded by low peaks. The natural environment is protected. Many of the existing houses were first built around the end of 17C. The houses, which contain wood in their structure, have had to be rebuilt many times throughout the years due to periodic fires, the last being in 1909. In 1987, the village, castle ruins, and surrounding area were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its main attractions include the protected part of the village comprised of 55 houses, Village Museum, Post Museum, and Holloko castle.

An intentionally preserved 17C village that perpetuates Paloc ethnographic traditions in wooden structures, costumes, and dialect.

We had a fantastic trip and RoutePerfect was an ENORMOUS help in our planning process! The planning was a breeze through RoutePerfect. even when we had to make a few hotel changes, it was all handled VERY smoothly. I could not be more pleased. We will definitely use RoutePerfect.com again when planning our next big trip! Thanks again, I love your site and recommend it unreservedly.

I happened to find RoutePerfect.com just by Google search when my wife and I were talking about the possibility of traveling in Europe. It's an amazing website that really helped us plan the perfect trip! The planning process was very easy, and the suggestions that the site made for us really helped and we were able to find many awesome places. The selection of the hotels was great and I really like how the site is linked with TripAdvisor to make sure that you are picking a good hotel. The package price was very good, and cheaper than other sites.
