Højdepunkter

In this tour, you'll receive a comprehensive overview of Hungary's communist era. Learn about how children were raised, family life, travel restrictions, and what life was like behind the Iron Curtain. Discover the lengthy process to acquire a passport and experience intriguing aspects of the time, from black markets to banana lines. We'll explore the history of the Communist government appointed after World War II, whose policies led to the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. The tour provides an overview and highlights major locations where significant events unfolded. We'll visit Liberty Square and Budapest's last remaining Soviet monument. Our journey will take us to the Hungarian Parliament, where the first shots that sparked the uprising were triggered. We'll also visit an exhibition near the Parliament, the site of the initial volley.

About Budapest

Budapest forener bakkede Buda og flade Pest over Donau, en storslået hovedstad med termiske bade, paladser ved floden og livlige ruinbarer.

På Buda-siden rummer Borgbakken Budaborgen, Matthiaskirken og Fiskerbastionens hvide tårne, der alle kigger ned på floden. Kædebroen krydser til Pest, hvor det ungarske Parlament strækker sig langs bredden, og Sankt Stefans Basilika rejser sig få gader inde i landet. Gellértbjerget og dets Citadella giver den videste udsigt.

Top-ranked sights in Budapest: House of Parliament (Országház), Buda Castle (Budai Vár), Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lanchid) .
