Bokodi Floating Village — Attraction in Oroszlányi járás

I have 13 years living in Hungary and this place made me feel outside of Hungary. The whole way of life in this village doesn’t have anything to do with Hungarian culture. I loved it because it was different.

Some tips: go only by car, but by no means with a low style (sports) car. The roads to enter are rough roads, not cement or asphalt as a tourist, go only if you are passing by as a photographer, you can go with only that destination in mind there are 2 ways to enter, one is from Bokod and the other one is from Oroszlány, I liked both, but the latter is the popular one for photography on the way there is not nice, don’t expect the place to be beautiful everywhere I have read that locals don’t feel really good with tourists, expect some grumpy faces it is not a recreational place, there are no coffee places for you to chill and enjoy the view.

Be prepared, there are no services at all, even the toilets are private properties and closed individually. From the first gate not able to reach by...
