Vacation to Hungary
Welcome to Budapest
|
Budapest has something for every individual - from dramatic background and flamboyant architecture to healing thermal waters as well as a nightlife that's unrivalled in Eastern and Central Europe.

Overall, though, Budapest carries a fin de siècle feel going without running shoes, for this was then, in the capital’s ‘golden age' within the late 1800s, that a majority of of what you observe today was built.
- The Past at Hand
They repeat the past can be another country, but it’s for ages been just around the corner in Budapest. Witness the bullet holes and shrapnel pockmarks on buildings from WWII along with the 1956 Uprising. There are sad reminders much like the poignant Shoes around the Danube memorial, but ones, too, of hope and reconciliation - just like the 'sword' from the former secret-police building on Andrássy út now beaten in the 'ploughshare' that is certainly the House of Terror, with both sides on the story - everywhere you look - told.
- Eat, Drink & Be Magyar

There's far more to Hungarian food than goulash, plus it remains one from the most sophisticated varieties of cooking in Eastern and Central Europe. Magyars may exaggerate once they say that you'll find three essential world cuisines - French, Chinese in addition to their own. But Budapest’s reputation to be a food capital dates largely through the late 19th as well as the first half on the 20th century and, despite a fallow period under communism, the location is once more commanding attention. So, too, are Hungary's excellent wines - from Eger's complex reds and Somló’s flinty whites to honey-sweet Tokaj.
- In the Soak

Budapest is blessed having an abundance of hot springs. As a result, ‘taking the waters’ continues to be an experience here because the time with the Romans. The selection of bathhouses is generous - you are able to choose from Turkish-era, art nouveau and modern establishments. Some people come seeking get rid of whatever ails them, however the majority are available for fun and relaxation.

Though we still maintain it’s the world’s best cure for what Hungarians call a macskajaj (cat’s wail) - hangover.
