Budapest
The Queen of the Danube — thermal baths, baroque grandeur, and brilliant nightlife
About Budapest
Why travelers love it here
Budapest is split in two by the Danube — the hilly, historic Buda on one side and the flat, energetic Pest on the other — and the combination is magnificent. The thermal bath culture is unique in Europe, the Parliament building at night is one of the continent's great sights, and the ruin bar scene in the Jewish Quarter has made Budapest one of the coolest nightlife capitals going.
