Introducing Budapest

The Neo-Classical architecture of the city, along with the graffiti-covered walls of its buildings, forms a perfect backdrop for the diverse landscape on either side of the Danube River. The Buda side is hilly and green, while the Pest side is flat and vibrant. The bridges that span the Danube highlight the progress Budapest has made through the centuries. The Chain Bridge and Elizabeth Bridge are perfect complements to the city’s architectural beauty.

Budapest has a vibrant energy that sets it apart from its counterparts, Vienna and Prague. It displays a unique individuality that gives the city a distinguished and refreshing edge — which is why millions of tourists from around the globe visit every year. Budapest is home to the largest synagogue, the third-largest church, and the third-largest Parliament building in Europe, as well as the continent’s largest medicinal bath.
