Top 10 essential experiences in Budapest.
Guests of Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace Budapest ofternsay they’re amazed by how much there is to see and do in Budapest. Here’s the Concierge list of 10 essential experiences.
1. Walk across the charming Chain Bridge, the first bridge to connect the city’s two sides: Buda and Pest. (Remember Buda is the hilly side with the castle, while Pest is the flat downtown side.) The bridge begins directly in front of Four Seasons.
2. Explore Castle Hill, located on the Buda side. Take the funicular to the hilltop for a walking tour of the historic enclave that adjoins the former Royal Palace, now home to art and history museums.
3. Take a Danube River cruise for panoramic views of Buda and Pest – giving a visitor a complete overview of the city.
4. Window-shop on the dynamic pedestrian boulevard, Váci utca[/b]. Stop for a pastry at the legendary [b]Gerbeaud Café, established in 1858, and savour the incredible people watching.
5. For foodies, there is the Central Market Hall – Europe’s largest food market. Shop with the locals and sample traditional Hungarian fare.
6. Enjoy a performance of opera or ballet at the century-old gilded Budapest Opera House. It’s like stepping into a fairytale.
7. Hungary is a land of thermal springs, and Budapest remains the world’s only capital city rich in thermal waters. Dip into the relaxing tradition by visiting one of the city’s old-world thermal baths.
8. Go for a stroll on Andrássy Avenue[/b] all the way to [b]Heroes’ Square, and understand why Budapest is often called the “Paris of the East.”
9. The Dohány Street Central Synagogue is the second largest in the world – topped only by one in New York. We definitely think it’s the world’s most beautiful.
10. Visit Hungary’s Parliament Building, a truly dazzling example of Neo-Gothic architecture that’s breathtakingly vast in scale. The Hungarian Crown Jewels are a highlight of the official tour.
