The Danube Bend's significance in Hungarian tourism - Global Citizenship Summer School (sitios de interés)

Even though the Danube flows through ten countries, it can be considered that the most beautiful part of the river, the Danube Bend, belongs to Hungary. If you look at the map, between Esztergom and Szentendre the river turns sharply south in the direction of Budapest, this is why the Danube Bend (Dunakanyar) got its name.
Travelling up on the Danube you can visit three towns, Szentendre, Visegrád, Esztergom, all with unique atmosphere and sights. They are said to be small pearls on a blue string, the Danube.
