Must See & Do in Budapest
The City
Everyone loves Budapest, and for good reason. For the architecture, romance and potent palinka. For the rickety trams and hot springs combined with a sad history, spoken by a beautiful but impenetrable language, and for a people who live life to the fullest. Witness the bullet holes and shrapnel pockmarks on buildings from WWII and the 1956 Uprising. Float past the glittering lights of Parliament House on the Danube. Budapest is a story that needs to be told, and one you will never forget.
Top things to see
- Buda Castle Hill The historical palace complex of Hungarian Kings, the view from up here will also knock your socks off
- St. Stephens Basilica Basilica named for St Stephen, the first King of Hungary. His mummified right hand is said to be housed in the reliquary.
- Parliament Building The third largest parliament in the world, it’s the seat of the Hungarian National Assembly and also houses the crown jewels.
- Széchenyi Baths/Bath Houses A trip to the baths is essential in this city, built over almost 125 thermal springs. The Szechenyi Bath House is one of the biggest and best.
- Central Market This restored neo-gothic hall is where you can try a lot of Hungarian specialties and pick up souvenirs.
