Welcome to Budapest

Straddling the Danube with the Buda Hills as backdrop and boasting enough baroque, neoclassical and Art Nouveau architecture to satisfy anyone, Budapest is plentifully endowed with natural and human-made beauty. But the Queen of the Danube is not just a pretty face. At night she frocks up to become what is now the regions premier party town.

Containing garish statues and over-the-top memorials from the Communist period, Memento Park could be described as both a cemetery of socialist mistakes and a well-manicured trash heap of history.

Insider tips to help you find the real Budapest
After taking in Budapest's fabulous array of sights, it's time to get behind what everyone sees in order to discover the Budapest local people know and love: the superb restaurants, the quirky shops and markets, and the bars and clubs that never say die.

Clear air

Quirky transport

They may be short on sights, but the Buda Hills are a welcome respite from the hot, dusty city in summer. Perhaps their biggest draws are their unusual forms of transport: a 19th-century narrow-gauge cog railway, a train run by children and a chairlift that will get you back down to terra firma.

Craft beers

World-class wine

Dont just follow the herd when day becomes night in this super party town. We have the lowdown on wheres the most fun with the least amount of hassle in the very heart of the nightlife area: Erzsbetvros.
