Discover the Busó Carnival (If Seasonal)
If your visit coincides with late February/early March (the period before Ash Wednesday), you might witness preparations for, or aspects of, the famous Busójárás carnival (Busó-walking). This UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage event, unique to the local Sokac (Croat) community, features costumed figures wearing wooden masks to scare away winter.
Tip: The full Busójárás festival is a multi-day event, but you may see references or traditional crafts related to it in local shops even outside the season.
