Hungary, once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire became a member of the European Union in May 2004. The country is landlocked in Eastern Europe and borders with Romania, Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, Ukraine, Slovakia and Austria. Hungary was shaped as a result of German rule and Soviet occupation, evidently leaving their influences historically and culturally throughout the country, added alongside other conqueror's marks left throughout the ages.

Above the capital of Budapest, on the hilltop sits the historic Buda Castle, surrounded by various buildings and houses shaped architecturally throughout time. Taking a walk through the cobble stone streets, leads one to the Citadella, the historic fortress, encircled by walls and exposing an incredible view of Budapest.

Hills and forests in Hungary make for amazing sceneries, regardless of the cold winters and hot summers. Hungary is truly a beautiful country, full of diverse culture, traditions, amazing architecture and a vibrant lifestyle, offering many options for any visitor. On a typical lazy day one can sit by the Danube River in a cafe, or enjoy a serving of the paprika spiced Goulash that makes Hungary's most popular dish in one of the many restaurants.

5 Essential Things to Know Before You Start Studying Abroad in Hungary
1. What's the currency in Hungary and how expensive are things?
Although Hungary is a member of the European Union, generally, you cannot use Euros: the official currency is called Forint (Ft). Although in some places, you can still pay with Euro, expect to receive forints back.

One Euro is worth about 300 Ft. There is a gap between the buying and selling prices of the currencies, and they can differ from seller to seller, so you should look around where you change your money.

If you come from a country West from Hungary, you will find everything to be much cheaper. Compared to other countries in Eastern Europe, the prizes in Hungary are quite similar.

2. Enjoy discounts with the student identity card
There are lots of discounts offered for students in Hungary, for example, on the public transport, at sport venues, or for cinema tickets – they will all cost almost the half of the original prize with the student card.

You can take a student identity card from your home university, or get an international one (called ISIC).

3. How to use the public transport in Hungary?
In Hungary, students can get a discount up to 50% of the transport fees. To buy tickets for the student prize, you need to have a valid student card with you, otherwise, you can get fined. Sadly, there are restrictions for exchange students, and they differ from company to company.

Let’s check the most important companies, and how can you use the student discount.

Budapest Transport Limited (BKV)
Budapest, the capital city has a really good public transport, and even at night you can reach any place. The metro lines, tram lines, suburban railways, buses, trolleys, night buses, etc. are all administrated by one company, so you only need one pass for any transportation means.

The actual prize of a Monthly Budapest pass for Students is 3900 Ft. There is a Quarterly pass for Students (valid for 100 days), it costs 11,500 Ft. If you would have visitors, who are not students, they can buy a 14-day pass for 6,500 Ft.
