Budapest
Budapest
With its multifarious and often embittered history, incredible architecture and rich cultural heritage, Hungary’s capital deserves its reputation as the ‘Paris of Eastern Europe’. It has a complex identity, somewhere between Western luxury and simple traditions.
Budapest’s highlights include a cruise along the Danube, strolling along the riverfront or across romantic bridges, browsing through antique bookshops and jewellery stores, or ‘taking the waters’ at one of the city’s many spas. The city is well laid-out, rarely confusing, and ideal for walking.
