Review:

Located about an hour by train from Budapest, the town of Kecskemet is famous for its museums, secessionist (non-typical) architecture and for being the birthplace of the composer Zoltan Kodaly. Two of the best examples of the city’s architectural style can be seen in the Cifra Palota (Ornamental Palace), which now houses the Kecskemet Gallery and the Old Synagogue which is now home to the House of Science and Technics. There are many interesting museums to visit including the Hungarian Photography Museum, the Leskowsky Musical Instrument Collection and the Zoltan Kodaly Musical Institute. If you are travelling with children you can take them to have some fun at the Kecskemét Fun Baths and Water Slide Park.
