7. Hungarian Open-Air Ethnographic Museum

The Hungarian Open-Air Ethnographical Museum is a must-visit, especially for kids since there is so much to learn about the old ways in which houses, stables and other buildings were built. There are also animals inside and you can pet them. There are several events and activities too. The museum, however, is huge and requires a lot of walking. It is also not wheelchair friendly, but apart from this, it is a wonderful place.
