Budapest?

Robin132

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations of places to go see or eat or visit etc in Budapest. I'll be there for 4 days later this week. Thanks a million

Sorry I don't have time to post a proper reply but here goes, for places to see I really liked the Castle district and its views. Definitely try one of the outdoor baths. I recommend doing the free Budapest walking tour, very informative and a fun way to see a great little city

+1 on the walking tour. I found the palace was beautiful and the best way to see the whole city.

It is a lovely city, but the people are very depressing and just down right rude. There is some great architecture there and Hősök tere (Heroes Square) is well worth going to see it is just off the famous Andrassy ut. The Castle is cool too.

Sorry to drag up an old thread but I didn't see the point in starting yet another one on Budapest. The search function suggests that there are plenty there already.

I'm in the place now and will be for the next week as I'm using Budapest as a base to go galavanting elsewhere.

I've been here for 2 days already and so far I have experienced nothing but a polite response from everyone I've met.

I'd recommend this city to anyone in Ireland thinking of heading away for a few days.


In fact, we could learn a lot from the place.

Try the thermal baths, they are georgeous.

Here is a good list of mayor sights:

Bel Canto restaurant on Andrassy Ut is or was excellent and the staff perform opera during the service.
