Discussion Exploring Hungary Beyond the Usual Tourist Spots

I recently came across a discussion about Hungary that mentioned Mr. Steves' guests, who grew up there, being abashed and perhaps mortified by something. It made me curious about the less talked about aspects of Hungary that might surprise or even challenge visitors. What are some unique experiences or hidden gems in Hungary that aren't on the typical tourist radar? I'm particularly interested in cultural, historical, or natural sites that offer a deeper understanding of the country. Has anyone ventured off the beaten path in Hungary and discovered something truly remarkable?
