5 Reasons to go to Budapest

1. Enjoy a taste of Hungarian culture

The Buda Castle district is one of the jewels of Hungarian culture. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is dotted with colourful façades. The Royal Palace on Castle Hill can be reached by cable car and houses the national Hungarian Gallery and the Budapest History Museum. The view from the Fisherman's Bastion is simply stunning.

2. Open-air swimming in pleasant company

Need to cool down? Nothing beats an open-air bath in 40-degree water for relaxing. In keeping with past traditions, why not partake in a game of chess? Among these public baths is the largest in Europe: the Széchenyi baths. They are open all day and night, all year round!

3. Inhale the aromas of the Central Market

Look familiar? The metal framework of the Central market, built in the Ferencváros district in the 1900s, was constructed using the drawings of the famous French engineer Gustave Eiffel. This impressive building is the larder of the Hungarian capital, and a great place to stroll through to get a feel for the local cuisine...

4. Walk among giants

Visit the Shoes monument in Budapest. This haunting tribute was created on the banks of the Danube to remember the victims of the holocaust. In another vein, the statues that adorn the urban landscape are a strange combination of stone and bronze, and their stronghold is Memento Park, home to the vestiges of the communist era...

5. Experience nightlife in the Kerts

The Kerts are disused buildings that have been transformed into underground bars. Resembling the Szimpla Kert or Szilvuplé, these "ruin pubs" are very popular with young Europeans and feature among the top bars in the world. They offer something for everyone, from quiet to downright crazy. And the added advantage of cheap beer!
