The white houses of the Palóc along two streets, a World Heritage Site since 1987 · 2 h on foot · Free, except at Easter

The walk
Hollókő is a village in the Nógrád region, in northern Hungary, where the Palóc, a group with their own tradition, still live in whitewashed wood-and-adobe houses, with high roofs and wooden galleries, along two streets that meet at the church. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987 as an example of a living traditional village: people live here and on festival days the Palóc costumes come out.
Where to go

Kossuth út, the main street, with the wooden church at the end.
Petőfi út, the other branch, quieter.
The museums and craftsmen's workshops that open in the houses.
The climb to the castle, above the village.

Strolling is free; only at the Easter festival do you pay to enter.
