Romantics
Do you like long walks along the waterfront, enjoy watching the Danube sunset and are open to unique activities? Vác is the perfect choice for a romantic getaway!
The city is such a great destination for couples looking for romantic moments that even the mandrake in Lake Ligeti has found a mate here. The beautifully coloured bird's lover has become a duck, with whom she happily assures visitors that a long, andalong walk along the shores of Lake Ligeti and in the ancient wooded park is a guaranteed romantic experience. The swans and other birds can only approve.
Just like the beautiful surroundings of Lake Ligeti, the Danube shore of Vác is a must for romantics. Walk along the waterfront promenades for stunning Danube panoramas, while the wild shores of Szentendre Island beckon you back.
Just a few minutes' walk from the Liszt Ferenc promenade is the legendary Arc de Triomphe of Vác, while at the other end of the promenade, next to the Ady Endre promenade, is the Music Pavilion, a great selfie spot for lovers.
What romantic activities are still waiting for you in Vác?
A wall of windows at the Anda Confectionery
You've probably heard of the famous Pécs padlock wall, which was followed by many others across the country. The history of padlocks goes back to an ancient Chinese tradition, according to legend, if lovers place a padlock on a never-ending chain or fence, their love will last forever.
The key to the lock, the guarantee of eternal love, must be thrown away so that the lock can never be removed from the wall.
Are you in the mood to share a padlock with your partner? The angel-shaped padlock wall outside the café in Vác is a great place to do it. Even if you didn't bring your own padlock, the café in Vác thinks of lovers, so you can buy one on the spot.
Halász köz, Rév köz
All you want is to walk down charming cobbled streets with your partner? In Vác, of course, you can. Halász köz leads to the Liszt Ferenc promenade, while Rév köz connects the city's beautiful baroque main square with the Ady Endre promenade.
As the two cobbled streets are within easy walking distance of each other, you're in the lucky position of being able to walk along both without having to choose between them.
