- Each year a special Easter festival takes place in a small village located in northeastern Hungary. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, for three days Hollókő becomes a tourist magnet, but visitors, beware! You may get wet.
It has nothing to do with the weather, because the tradition is for boys and men to chuck water over young women, for which the girls reward them with small gifts.
"The girls deserve it. Tradition says boys wander around with buckets with cold water," said one la...

Wow euronews is talking about hungary without talking about orban or migrant crisis. Thats something i never taught i will see
For the slavic countries Hungary is like that one friend who comes over so often he's basically treated as family. By origins and historically we aren't a slavic country but culturally we exchanged so much with them, especially with Poland, that we're technically seen as one.
Genetically you are Slavic, the Hungarian language came somewhere from western Siberia and later these people just assimilated the original Slavs in todays Hungary
Magyars same a comon genes with the Slavs and the Balts
@@majstter7420 Mostly slavic, but the Magyar tribes had siberian origin, so when they have arrived, they got assimilated with the conquered slavic people, it is why genetically are so close, however in the history nobody knew that before the DNA was discovered, so peoples were determined by their spoken languages.
Thank you very much I would rather not be seen as a slav
@perseus274 Assimilation when two different peoples/tribes etc. become one (melted together).
Forced? Common people were always speaking Hungarian of the Hungarian population. Latin was only used among the higher class people, kings, nobles, priests.
Imádom a magyar hagyományokat !
Alien, where is your leader? 🦍🦍🦍
that's super neat ! there's just so many neat variations of face types in Europe that look so different from the other as one travels through regions in Europe, the faces and cultures change, and i absolutely love the varieties each one has as well as there being relatable thing within each culture throughout.
In Slovakia we use also whips and girls pour water over men as well
Lots of people doesn't know but after eastern day Women can pour water over men as well at least in some villages. 😅
Finally i saw a non toxic comment from you
Same in Poland
We are brothers and sisters❤
Same in Czech republic but upgraded with pomlázka
@@bones6924 what is the pomlázka? 😀
European nations are one big family.
From Iceland to Russia, we are family!
@@presh3681 Poland is less homosexual. 🏳🌈🌈🏳🌈🌈
I would hate this tradition 😂
Hello for those it was reccomended by the RUclips algorythm
Slovakia too 🙄
..Northern Hungary close to Slovakia and Poland ... These are influences of old Slavic customs. Hungarians are not only in the genes (DNA) a lot connects with the Slavs, but also in culture and even in language ...
slaw1848 thats true, i am transylvanian hungarian and we have the same customs as you. I have many slav friend and i am always feel at home.
Hungarian people are Finnor-Ugric, so I do not think they have that many connections in their DNA. Even thought they were invaded by the Slavs for a couple of decades, it does not make them related. Influences in lang and culture, yeah. Happens to the best of us, haha!
Not at all in language, even if there are some exceptions like mačka-macska etc. but the core is very different plus grammar.
@@s.k3179 that is incorrect. The hungarian language is used to be labelled as Finno-Ugric, but the DNA of hungarians are basically the same as the neighboring countries. The most related are austrians.
@@s.k3179 Hungarians have the same genetics as other central europeans. They have less than 1% Uralic genes.
HAPPY EASTER dear Christians... Jesus Christ is risen. We celebrate this wonderful historical event and know as Christ was raised from the dead so also we too will rise again and share in the glory of Jesus Christ.
This is what we call legalising "Humiliating women"
sure :D but forget the biggest reality...
most of the case use a parfume-like parfume (what can buy in the shops at only easter and has very very light texture) and you must to tell a poem and then spray for their hairs... (it's representing the spring and blooming so the girls not ruin but blooming)
this is a festival with the "stage" and non of the cases happening like this... even if there is some case but only between very close peoples and mostly using for joke...
Yeah, stfu if you don't have anything better to say.
Calm Down! The Hungarian wedding traditions humiliate men much more brutal.
😂
Average westoid be like:
Gente sin oficio
Y en españa que a matar toros y tirar cabras del campanario
It's called cultural/folk tradition, you ignorant.
