About Budapest

Budapest forener kuperte Buda og flate Pest over Donau, en staselig hovedstad med termiske bad, palasser ved elven og livlige ruinbarer.

På Buda-siden rommer Slottsberget Budaborgen, Matthiaskirken og Fiskerbastionens hvite tårn, som alle ser ned på elven. Kjedebroen krysser til Pest, der det ungarske parlamentet strekker seg langs bredden og Sankt Stefans basilika reiser seg noen få kvartaler inn i landet. Gellértberget og dets Citadella gir den videste utsikten.
