Bekescsaba: Szent István tér
Békéscsaba has served as an agricultural centre on Hungary’s Great Plain since the 18th century. The flat townscape is crossed by the Élővíz Canal, part of the local water-management network, while the centre is shaped by civic buildings, broad streets and leafy public spaces. Slovak Lutheran settlers repopulated Békéscsaba in 1718, and their language and traditions remain an important part of its identity. The city is also closely associated with Csabai sausage, a paprika-seasoned pork speciality known across Hungary. Békéscsaba’s annual sausage festival celebrates this local craft and brings a food tradition into the centre of city life.

Built around the Tisza River basin and the trading routes of the Great Hungarian Plain, Great Plain and North developed into a broad region where open farmland meets Hungary’s northern hills. The Tisza and its floodplain have long influenced settlement and agriculture, while the plains retain the puszta character associated with horse breeding and herding. Hortobágy National Park, Hungary’s first national park and a UNESCO World Heritage site, safeguards a cultural landscape of grassland, wetlands and traditional pastoral use. Farther north, the terrain rises toward the country’s mountain districts. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of Hungary connects between the plain and northern uplands.

Hungary combines a long urban tradition with expansive lowland horizons in a way that reflects its position within the Carpathian Basin. The Danube runs through Budapest, separating the hills of Buda from the grand boulevards of Pest, where the Hungarian Parliament Building stands on the riverbank. Beyond the capital, the Great Hungarian Plain shapes much of the east, while Lake Balaton, Central Europe’s largest lake, draws summer visitors to its shores. Thermal bathing remains part of everyday life, and the Tokaj region is internationally known for its historic sweet wines.
