BUDAPEST

Some fall in love with the city at first sight,
some are won over only after a longer period of
discovery, but all agree that it occupies one of
the most beautiful sites in the world. It may be
thanks to its impressive surroundings, the Da-
nube River that divides the city, the Buda hills to
the west and the Great Plain to the east or due to
its varied and beautiful architecture: Renaissan-
ce, Byzantine, Neo-Classical, and Art-Nouveau
buildings coexist in perfect harmony. Its ext-
ensive World Heri tage Site includes: the banks
of the Danube, Buda Castle Quarter, Andrassy
Avenue, Hero’s Square, and the Millennium Un-
derground Railway. To top that, the city has 80
geothermal springs, the world’s largest water
cave system where visitors can indulge in a re-
laxing bath. For lovers of culture, the only prob-
lem is choosing: there are 237 monuments, 223
museums and galleries, 35 theatres, 90 cinemas,
2 opera houses, 12 concert halls and nearly 200
places of amusement. The capital’s best restau-
rants are found in Pest. For a unique drink try a
Ruin Pub, Budapest’s network of bars in disused
buildings that include former tenement houses,
factory buildings and community centers.
