I suppose all Hungarians have heard the fable that Hungary is really at the head of the line when it comes to thermal springs, that our medicinal springs are famed throughout Europe and that they attract foreign and domestic tourists like a magnet. Fact: there really are thermal springs beneath four-fifths of the country and we really are world leaders when it comes to the number and variety of ...

- 13 Aug 2013 1:00 AM
- current affairs
I almost missed the 24-hour-long police action in the nine districts of the left bank of the Danube, which means the entire Pest side of Budapest. Thousands of policemen worked diligently starting at “Sunday morning zero hour” to stop and search cars.
