Pedestrians have priority on crossings
Pedestrians have the right of way on zebra/pedestrian crossings in Hungary and generally, vehicles will give way to you. As always though, exercise caution!
Sparnaðarleiðir
Pay in Forints, not Euros
The currency in Hungary is the Forint (shortened to HUF). Occasionally though, you might find prices in shops quoted in Euros (EUR). Don’t be tempted! The conversion rate is almost always poor and you end up paying more than you should.
