Budapest is one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Both historical turbulence and a plethora ofinfluences can be seen in the amazing mix of architecture, cuisine and culture. Close to the west,it is a realistic destination for short weekend breaks. It is also the ideal place for honeymoons orromantic getaways; the city is small enough to walk most of the sights and completely safe.Although Many tourist attraction have fees, there is a lot to be seen and absorbed just walkingthe streets, parks, markets and the peaceful Buda Hills.

EXPLORE BUDAPEST

Hungary Tourism Plc

The River Danube ows right through the heart of Budapest and thus creates a point of reference for visitorswho are either on the old cobbled streets on the Budaside, or in the 19th century boulevards on the Pest side.Your interests will decide on which side of the Danube youwill spend most of your time. Anyone interested in historywill nd it dicult to tear oneself away from Buda, wherethe Palace summit creates an atmosphere of medievalBudapest. Shopaholics will very soon be enticed by theother side of the river where the shops and nightlifecompete for everyone’s attention.

Budapest is really the fusion of three towns, Buda, Óbuda and Pest. Back in 106 AD, the Romans founded the city ofAquincum in the north-east corner of the Danube. Severalchanges of population later, at the end of the 9th century,the Magyars arrived. They were descended from aFinnish-Ugrian tribe with roots in Siberia. The Magyar city,with its palace and ring-wall, came to be called Buda, andAquincum was later called Óbuda. The other side of theriver was also settled, in the area which would later becalled Pest.

Having been invaded by the Turks - and later by the Austrian army - in 1867 Hungary was elevated to an equalpartner in the Austro-Hungarian double monarchy.Budapest became one of the most important ports on theDanube and soon also an industrial centre.
