Csongrád

A unique feature of this atmospheric town with its shady trees and groves at the confluence of the rivers Tisza and Körös is its centre, where 32 thatched houses make up the only village-sized folk monument on the Puszta. Its narrow streets, which were crooked in make them easier to defend, and the adobe houses with thatched roofs over 200 years old, the homes of fishermen and farmers, are still living parts of the town.

The Csongrád Museum House consists of 2 buildings: the Old House and the Large House.

Szarvas

The most famous sight in this settlement along the River Körös is the Szarvas Arboretum, also known as Pepi garden which was established in the late 19th century. There are over 1,600 different species of trees and bushes, including many rare species in this 82-hectare park. The 200-year-old school of agriculture  founded by the scientist, farmer and teacher, the Lutheran pastor Sámuel Tessedik houses a museum dedicated to local history and ethnography.

The dry mill, still in working order, is one of only three surviving dry mills in the country which grind grist and cereals. The traditional Slovak house museum is a 19th-century peasant home exhibiting nearly 1,000 objects. The Körös-Maros National Park and the Körös Valley Visitor Centre takes the visitors into the world of the saline Puszta and floodplain forests. The Holt (Dead) Körös with water stretching for 30-km is the country's fifth largest lake, an ideal holiday destination for families, children and hikers. Offering 11 species of fish to catch, it is an excellent place for anglers.

Other sights of interest include a mill-shaped riverside monument marking the geographical centre of pre-Trianon Hungary, a row of wooden sculptures symbolising the history of Hungary and a bronze statue depicting the wolf in the Capitol in Rome to be found at the Classicist Bolza Mansion on the Holt Körös.
