Holloko, a UNESCO world heritage site, is a small village located in the hills of northern Hungary. My sensors were greeted with the sounds of folk music and the sight of locals dressed in traditional Hungarian clothing. The village is well-known for its preserved rural architecture, which includes characteristic village homes with contrasting white walls and thatched roofs. I compared this site with some I have visited before, and the experience was unique due to its emphasis on traditional village life. I could smell the scent of traditional home-cooked Hungarian food being served in the local restaurants and shops. The locals were courteous and informative about their rich traditions and heritage. The narrow, winding, cobblestone streets add to the authentic experience. It was a delight to observe the traditional crafts and costumes of this village up close.
