One of the most reliables Roman temples of Isis god
In my opinion this is one of the most reliable replicas of a Roman temple dedicated to Isis God. This museum has a very big collection of artifacts recovered from excavations.

Szombathely A roman holiday in Hungary
Szombathely is a mid size Hungarian town. Despite a lovely square most Western European visitors would pass it by on the way to Balaton. Once a year this city however holds one of the most spectacular festivals celebrating its roman past in Europe. In the heart of the town there is a reconstruction of a roman walled fort, with roman gardens and arch. The locals all dress up and walk about the hundreds of little stalls covering almost every inch of the inner town. There is a wide mix of food and drink stalls open into the wee hours and the atmosphere is friendly. Basically it's a great festival and a hidden gem in Europe. Get there soon while it's cheap and not too commercial in the sense of gearing itself to rip off tourists. Now it's authentic and well worth a long weekend. The roman museum itself it established and has many interesting artefacts housed in modern facilities which look great. Most of the exhibits are in German and English which was welcome.
