About Budapest

Budapest unit Buda la vallonnée et Pest la plate de part et d'autre du Danube : thermes, palais au bord du fleuve et ruin bars animés.

Côté Buda, la colline du Château porte le palais royal, l'église Matthias et les tourelles blanches du Bastion des Pêcheurs, qui dominent tous le fleuve. Le pont des Chaînes mène à Pest, où le Parlement hongrois s'étire le long de la rive et où la basilique Saint-Étienne s'élève à quelques rues de là. La colline Gellért et sa Citadelle offrent les vues les plus larges.
