Szentendre is a small town of merely 20,000 inhabitants, located near Budapest and easily accessible by railway and river boat for vacationers staying in the capital city. The picturesque riverside village is well known for its museums and artists’ colony and is a popular tourist destination on the Danube.

 Charming cobblestone streets are lined with lovely decorated shops and intriguing baroque architecture. Several of its various churches are included among its attractions, such as the Serbian Orthodox Church, and Chiprovtsi Church.
