Real feelings of Chinese immigrants to Hungary
after I got the pink card, I immediately thought that I should visit Hungary first. The purpose of the inspection is twofold. First, since we are going to settle down in the future, although Hungary is very good in my impression, I have never been there. What is the climate and environment like? How about the price? How is public security? How was school? These are all immediate problems. Second, considering the need for proof of address to change the permanent residence card in the future, if you take this opportunity to buy the house, you will not have to buy an address in the future. In addition, I learned that the housing prices in Hungary are very low, so I am very impulsive to start a set like buying food at once! There are many introductions about Budapest on the Internet, so I won't introduce them. Focus on our own feelings.
About the face of the city of Budapest, the road to pick up our global reception from the airport should be the airport expressway. Actually, it is not an expressway, with no toll station, two lanes in both directions and few cars. The airport is not far from the city, and the driver said that we have entered the suburbs of the city.
core area and tourist attractions: the buildings in the 5th, 6th and 7th districts and the scenic spots in Budapest introduced on the Internet are really good, especially on the Danube River, where there are not many tall buildings, but it is really refreshing. The photos of Budapest you see on the Internet should all be true, and the real scene is more beautiful.
About the ideology of Hungary, a friend asked me whether Hungary is socialism or capitalism because Hungary's popularity in China is really low. According to what we have seen, there is no difference in ideology between Hungary and other European countries, a typical western country. The appearance of Hungarian native race is still biased towards Europe, which is totally wrong because some people think that Hungarians are related to Huns, come from China and look like China people.
Hungary used to be a socialist country. You can find this information on the Internet. Now it is a standard capitalist country, but it is more inclined to the East and has a good relationship with China. This is good for us in China.
According to our own personal experience, we feel that Hungarians are friendly to China people, and there is no exclusion. This impression has also been confirmed by local Chinese friends. Therefore, everyone is completely at ease. This is very important for friends who plan to settle down in the past, which is an important foundation for our future life.
On the contrary, according to the feedback from other new immigrant friends who visited neighboring countries in Hungary, Austria bordering Hungary and Germany in the past, although more modernized and economically better, are not very friendly to China people. And the consumption level and house price in Germany and Austria are much higher than those in Hungary. There have been new immigrant friends who used Hungary as a springboard to live in Austria and Germany in the future. After the inspection, they basically gave up their thoughts.
The housing price in Hungary is equivalent to the third-tier cities in China. The details are as follows: 3, RMB can also buy the ordinary residential building in China, with 2 rooms and 1 living room, with a usable area of 7 square meters. A better apartment, on the Danube, 7, or 8, yuan is also very good. One million RMB can buy a townhouse or a duplex villa. 1.5 million yuan can't get a good single-family villa. Of course, these are all approximate situations. The specific housing prices depend on the location, environment, housing quality and so on. The housing prices I am talking about are only approximate figures. In short, the house is very cheap. If you sell the domestic house, you can buy several sets here.
Price in Hungary Personally, I feel that the overall consumption level in Hungary does not exceed that in China. But the situation is different in different aspects. Let me talk about the aspects we have come into contact with.
Daily food: The price of food in supermarkets does not exceed that in China. Specifically, the price of 1 liter of imported milk at room temperature is about RMB 1-13 yuan, and the supermarket in Budapest is 6 yuan. The domestic chilled fresh milk is above 13 yuan, while Budapest is 8 yuan. The price of eggs is slightly more expensive than that in China. The prices of vegetables and fruits are similar.
Eating in a restaurant: We feel that everyone in Budapest eats 1 yuan, which is already a good grade, and this is cheaper than that in China. The price of ordinary fast food is comparable to that in China, ten or twenty dollars.
Mobile phone charges: As we use temporary prepaid calling cards, we feel that the charges for telephone calls and short messages are much higher than those in China, and the charges for Internet access are cheaper than those in China. I bought a 4 yuan phone with a traffic of 1G for one month. According to the local people, if you settle down in the future, it will be cheaper to use the set meal. Generally speaking, it should be comparable to that in China.
public transportation price: I have never taken a taxi, so it should be more expensive than in China. Subway, tram, bus, if you buy a one-way ticket, it will cost nearly ten yuan per person. If you buy a three-day ticket, a seven-day ticket, a monthly ticket, etc., it will be very cheap and not much more expensive than in China.
the convenience of public transportation: the number of subway lines in Budapest can't be compared with that in Beijing and Shanghai. However, from the convenience of transfer, it can't be compared between China and Budapest, which requires friends to experience for themselves.
environment and air: I don't need to say much about this. It's not a bit better than the magic of the Imperial Capital. Haze is definitely not there. When the plane in the sky is not flying very high, the words on the plane can be seen, which we don't realize in China.
temperature: in the hottest summer, the highest outdoor temperature is 29 degrees. It is hot in the sun and cool in the shade. It is said that the coldness in winter is much better than that in Beijing. You can check the weather in Budapest on the weather software, and everything is updated. One thing to remind everyone, because the air quality there is good, the sunshine ultraviolet rays are very strong. If summer is over, women and children must bring sunscreen.
during these days in Hungary, I have deeply liked it here. When you really stand here, you will understand that personal experience is the most important and beautiful thing.
