Downtown Debrecen, the second largest city in Hungary next to Budapest is impressive! The historic part is spotless and meticulously manicured. The buildings seem bright and freshly painted. The focal point is the huge cathedral as you enter the village. The centre was relatively quiet compared to most cities we have toured but maybe it was the rainy weather that kept people at home. The architecture was beautiful and well maintained. We toured for a few hours and had lunch at one of the most famous hotels in Hungary, Hotel Aranybika. We had a lovely lunch in their spectacular dining room for a grand total of $11 for two. Anywhere else at a 5 star restaurant, you would be looking at $60-80 bucks. I could not believe it!!
