                <description><![CDATA[From the Pest riverside you can take a boat that will take you to Szentendre, the pictureque town upriver, and further on still to Visegrad. Here you can climb a mountain, visit the old castle and get a spectacular view of the northern Hungarian hills, and can even see over the border into Slovakia.]]></description>
