The extraordinary rock formations and caves of Al-Qara are one of the most prominent landmarks in the Al Ahsa region and are well worth a dedicated day trip. Exploring the maze-like caves is a pleasant experience year-round; the caves remain cool during the summer and warm in the winter. The mountaintop offers unobstructed views of the lush palm oasis below. According to local legend, these caves are associated with the story of Judas Iscariot, who is said to have ended his life here after the biblical betrayal.

Nagyerdei Park is the home of Hungary’s most modern sports arenas. The brand new, state-of-the-art arena, Nagyerdei Stadium, was inaugurated in 2014. With a seating capacity of 20,000, it promises to become a fantastic venue of competitive team events and individual training sessions as well as concerts and other programs of cultural interest. The stadium’s unique architectural features boast a spectacular “suspension sidewalk.” Complete with a running track, the 1,100-m-long structure skirts the entire building at a height of several meters. This will make joggers feel that they do altitude training smack in the middle of the flattest region in Hungary.

Perched atop the Bosco plateau, just a stone's throw away from the Saint François Church and overlooking the Mediterranean sea, this cemetery dating back to 1823 enjoys some of the best views on the island. The captivating scenery of the Cimetière Marin make it a favourite amongst photographers, especially during breathtaking sunsets, when the pink granite really comes to life. Impressive family tombs and individual crypts carved out of the limestone terrain make this a very special, if sombre experience.
