Budapest
Budapest, the double city (Buda and Pest) on the banks of the Danube river, capital and largest city of Hungary. Budapest is considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. As much history, museums as walks in the city, loaded with culture, architecture, magnificent squares and bridges. Between the Jewish quarter and its tragic history, its castle, its parliament and its historical baths, Budapest is the perfect destination for a long weekend. An important tourist destination, the city attracts more than 4.3 million visitors a year and several parts are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
