Transport options to the conference venue:

MTA PAB Székház (Jurisics Miklós u. 44)

1. From Pécs Railway Station (Pécs Pályaudvar)

The Pécs Railway Station (Indóház tér 1, 7622) is located south of the city center.

• Walking:
  • Feasibility: Walking is not recommended from the Railway Station to Jurisics Miklós utca. It's a long, uphill journey covering a significant distance.
  • Estimated time: Approximately 40-50 minutes (around 3-3.5 km) with considerable elevation gain.
• Bus:
  This is the most recommended public transport option.
  • How: From the bus stops directly in front of the Railway Station (Pécs Pályaudvar), you'll need to take a bus that goes towards the city center or directly towards the Mecsek-oldal (hillside) area where Jurisics utca is located.
  • Recommended lines:
    • Bus 34Y, 35Y, 36: These lines travel from the Railway Station up towards the Mecsek-oldal. The closest stop to the venue would be "MTA Székház". This stop is right at the venue.
  • Travel time: Approximately 15-20 minutes by bus, depending on traffic. More about bus schedule: https://mobilitas.biokom.hu/menetrend
  • Tickets: Purchase tickets in advance from kiosks (Relay, Trafik), or online, or directly from the driver (usually at a higher price). Validate your ticket upon boarding. A 24-hour or 72-hour travel pass might be economical for multiple journeys.

2. From Pécs Downtown (e.g., Széchenyi tér)

Széchenyi tér is the main square in Pécs city center.

• Walking:
  • Feasibility: Walking is possible, but be aware that it's a significant uphill climb from the city center to Jurisics utca. For those who enjoy walking and don't mind an incline, it offers nice views.

• Bus: This is a convenient and highly recommended option from the city center.
  • How: From various stops around the city center (e.g., Vásárcsarnok, Kórház tér, Barbakán), you can catch buses heading uphill towards the Mecsek-oldal.
  • Recommended lines:

• Bus 34Y, 35Y, 36: These lines travel from the Railway Station up towards the Mecsek-oldal. The closest stop to the venue would be "MTA Székház". This stop is right at the venue.
