The number of travellers in Hungary surpassed 15m by the end of September, Visit Hungary, a unit of the Hungarian Tourism Agency (MTU), said on Monday based on figures from the National Tourism Data Service Centre (NTAK).
Visit Hungary CEO Oliver Csendes said that "the fact that we exceeded the fifteen millionth guest mark three weeks earlier this year than last year clearly shows that Hungary's tourist appeal is continuously strengthening".
The number of foreign and domestic travellers were around equal, Visit Hungary said.
Among foreign travellers, Budapest was the most popular destination with 36pc of visitors going there.
Most travellers arrived from Germany, followed by guests from Poland, Romania and the United Kingdom.
For domestic travellers, the most popular destination was the area around Lake Balaton, followed by the mountainous regions of Bukk and Matra and then the capital.
