Summary
Home of the Huns, Hungary is a country with a long and fascinating history. Its capital, Budapest, is (literally) a city of two halves, with the river Danube uniting historic Buda with vibrant Pest. Head up Castle Hill in Buda for a visit to the Royal Buda Castle Palace, and take in beautiful vistas of the iconic Parliament Building across the river.
Famed for its bountiful natural hot springs, Hungary is home to an abundance of geothermal spas. Don’t miss the chance to relax and take the waters at one of the country’s many public baths.
Combine a stay in Budapest with a visit to Vienna, Prague, Krakow, Berlin or Rome.

Description
Budapest has a wealth of riches for visitors to discover. From its pubs set in ruined buildings, known as ‘kerts’, to an amazing pinball museum, there are unique places as well as more conventional castles, churches, synagogues, parks and music festivals waiting for you.
If you’re looking for scenic views of the River Danube that runs through the city, then head to the World Heritage Site of Castle Hill for great photo opportunities. When it comes to Hungarian food, paprika is king and there are lots of remarkable restaurants serving up local dishes such as goulash and lángos – an indulgent flatbread that’s deep-fried and utterly delicious.
