    Review of: Halászbástya
    Great views - especially if you beat the crowds
    Amazing views here!!

    Go early to beat the crowds!! (We also got lucky that the barriers were down and so we didnt have to pay to go up to the top (normally about €3 I think)). We got there at about 8:45, and you can see how quiet it was although got a lot busier by about 9:30am!

    Would definitely recommend!

    We got a taxi up (although there are several buses that stop right outside) and then walked back down.

    Could easily spend half a day here just wondering and taking it all in :)

    Review of: St. Stephen's Basilica (Szent Istvan Bazilika)
    Worth paying to see inside
    Worth paying to see inside its very impressive. Ticket cost is 3,200 ft each which is about £7.10 that includes the church, treasury and the view from the dome. There is a lift if you don’t fancy tackling the 302 steps.

    Review of: Danube River
    A must do for relaxation and amazing scenery
    Cruising down the Danube river was truly amazing. There were castles and beautiful churches as well as town along the river that were truly remarkable. Our journey started In Hungary and ended in Germany. The nights are amazing for all the lights but the day time sites were just as good.

    Review of: Buda Castle
    Very pleasant afternoon
    Great building with lovely gardens and great view points over the city.
    There are many places to eat and drink around here and you could make a whole day of it if you wished.

    Review of: Shoes on the Danube Bank
    Don't miss it
    During the Holocaust thousands of Jews were executed on the Danube river, they were shot to death and thrown to the river. Most of them were executed on the last year of the war. The memorial situated on the Danube (Pest) side and there are thousands of shoes displayed.

    Review of: Margaret Island
    Nice green spot in the city
    We went for a walk in the park, it was very peaceful and quiet with couples, families and other people doing cycling and jogging.
    There is a nice music fountain in the middle calming the atmosphere. We took a bike ride around the park Wich is about 2km.
    The park reminded me central park in New York

    Review of: Gellert Hill
    As essential as the rest...
    Budapest and all its beauty is enjoyed from all angles, altitudes and perspectives, and from up the hill it has also to be seen.

    Review of: Széchenyi Lánchíd
    No visit complete without it
    Some of the pools appear dirty and crowded. but the crowded part is part of the charm. Getting to talk to people. The outside pool is exciting, the changing rooms with wrist activated locks are worth the extra 2$. Only one pool we felt was hot enough.

    Review of: Matthias Church
    Intimate in scale
    Unlike so many of the grand churches of Europe, this church has an intimate feeling to it. Perhaps we were here with few crowds, but we have memories of quiet exploration throughout the church.

    Review of: Heroes' Square
    Do NOT forget to walk to the castle
    Square itself is nice and interesting, but...do walk across the bridge behind it, to the leisure area park, and visit a castle on the right, really worth seeing different architecture styles and statues.

    Excellent place and staff
    We have been there already two times. Enough space and time for a fun 1-2 hours, central location, great value for the price.

    Review of: Hospital in the Rock Nuclear Bunker Museum
    Would recommend!
    An hour that flies by!

    I have visited this museum twice now. I love that it brings the scenes to life with the waxworks. It's good to appreciate the importance of this place as a hospital in multiple wars.

    Tour is guided, enter with a tour once an hour and takes an hour. Can be a little cold but we were fine in our summer outfits.
