Highlights
The area around Budapest’s Heroes Square, the Széchenyi Thermal Bath, and Városliget (the City Park) is one of the city’s most fascinating, shaped by centuries of change. On this walking tour through the City Park, I’ll share the stories and secrets that most visitors miss and, if you take this tour, you won’t be one of them. The tour starts at the famous Heroes’ Square, nestled between Budapest’s Museum of Fine Arts and its Art Gallery (Kunshtalle). From there, you’ll stroll through the City Park and see the Budapest Zoo & Botanical Garden’s highly decorative Elephant House. I’ll show you where to get fantastic views of Vajdahunyad Castle, and share the story of City Park’s lake. The tour ends at Budapest’s most famous and largest spa, the Széchenyi Thermal Bath.

About Budapest
Budapest joins hilly Buda and flat Pest across the Danube, a grand capital of thermal baths, riverside palaces and lively ruin bars.
On the Buda side, Castle Hill holds Buda Castle, the Matthias Church and the white turrets of Fishermen's Bastion, all looking down on the river. The Chain Bridge crosses to Pest, where the Hungarian Parliament Building stretches along the bank and St Stephen's Basilica rises a few streets inland. Gellért Hill and its Citadella give the widest views.
Top-ranked sights in Budapest: House of Parliament (Országház), Buda Castle (Budai Vár), Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lanchid) .
