Paka

Paka is best known within Hungary as the birthplace of József Öveges, the physicist and science educator whose radio and television programmes brought experiments into many Hungarian homes. The village lies among the rolling Göcsej hills of Zala County, in western Transdanubia, a region of small settlements, woodland and cultivated fields. Rather than an urban destination, Paka provides a local perspective on this rural corner of the country, between the larger towns of Zalaegerszeg and Lenti. Öveges’s legacy gives the place a lasting connection to Hungarian public science. See how Paka belongs to western Transdanubia by browsing webcams across Zala County.
