    well first off I would recommend visiting some thermal baths while you are here, but do so at the end of the day cause it's nice for relaxing after a day of walking. The best baths in Budapest in my opinion are the szechenyi ones in city park, they're 2200 ft which is about 9 euro, but depending upon how long you spend there, you get a refund, anything from 4 euro to 2 euro. You can get there on the yellow metro line it has it's own stop

    Sightseeing wise a must is a visit to St.Stephens Basilica which is absolutly beautiful, it's a 5 minute walk from erzsabet ter which is beside deak ferenc ter (pretty much the city centre), the fishermans bastion and castle hill in general is also beautiful, and you can get there with the red metro line just go to moszkova ter, margit island is lovely for walking on if it's a nice day and it has it's own tram stop on the 4, 6 tram line(the MAIN tram line), the parliament is along the river and it is also a beautiful building, there is also heroes square (hosok ter) which is near the szechenyi baths and there are two art museums right next to the square.

    My favourite hungarian restaurant is on a tram stop along the 4,6 line, the baross utca stop near rakoczi ter, it's called Stex Haz and it's across the road from the mc donalds, good food and cheap, budapest has a lot of really great restaurants

    the market hall is something you should also see, it's at the end of Vaci utca, which is the main touristy street. If you like Jazz then there is a jazz bar called fat mo's on a street off vaci utca it's Nyári Pál utca.

    the city is beautiful to walk around at night and safe! you should climb gellert hill at night, at say 10 or so and look at the city from there, it's an amazing view.

    Ok some cool clubs and cafe's well i recommend starting off in Szimpla which is on Kazinczy utca, off Rakozci Ut, look out for the yellow sign because it's just a doorway so you have to keep an eye out for it, here's the website http://www.szimpla.hu/index_en.htm

    then for a late night head to west balkan which is also hard to find but here's what you should do: go to the corvin cinema which is on the 4,6 line (stop ulloi ut) and also on the blue metro (ferenc korut), now it is a few minutes walk from the corvin

    eh that is all i can think of right now but i shall send you more if i remember anything
