The story

The Budapest Coffee and Tea Festival in Budapest

Held each early May at Budapest's Hungarian Railway History Park, this four-day event bills itself as Hungary's largest coffee and tea festival, with around forty exhibitors, barista championships, latte art competitions, and a Japanese tea ceremony demonstration among vintage steam locomotives. Several exhibitors set up their tasting counters directly inside the historic railway carriages themselves.

Vintage steam locomotives and railway cars at the Hungarian Railway History Park in Budapest provide an unusual backdrop for a four-day spring festival billed as Hungary's largest coffee and tea event, where visitors sample specialty coffee and global teas while sitting inside or around retro rail carriages rather than a conventional exhibition hall.
