Esztergom is a pleasant Hungarian town situated on the Slovakia-Hungary border. Ć tĂșrovo is the town on the Slovak side of the border, which has an ethnic Hungarian majority. On a small hill overlooking the town and the Danube is a Cathedral, which is the largest in Hungary, and the site at which the Hungarian king Vajk (Szent IstvĂĄn) was baptised. The adjacent castle complex is also worth a look. You can easily get here by bus or train from Budapest. Alternatively, you can take a train to Ć tĂșrovo which is on the main line between Budapest and Bratislava. From there, it's a 45 minute walk to the Danube.
