Summary

A look ahead at issue 56 of hidden europe magazine which will be published in mid November.

Issue 56 of hidden europe, due out in mid November, will see us return to Switzerland with an article on the Swiss Jura. Elsewhere in that upcoming issue we shall feature Mohács in Hungary, a remarkably multicultural town on the bank of the River Danube. It’s been a while since we covered Italy in the magazine, so we'll make space in issue 56 for an article on the Isole Borromee, a wee archipelago which includes one of Italy’s most densely populated islands.

You can follow us on Twitter @hiddenEurope and @EuropebyRail, Facebook (@hiddenEurope) and Instagram ( @hiddenEuropeMagazine).
