- Békéscsaba isn’t well-known internationally, so it’s not a “bucket list” stop
Cons
–
The event is short and compact—more a pop-in market than a full-day festival
–
Public transport from Budapest takes time (about 3 hours by train), so a car is more practical
–
Compared to famous European craft or Christmas markets, it’s smaller with fewer vendors and no big entertainment
