Informally known as the “City of Spas,” Budapest has much more to offer than a minibreak on the massage table. Packed with ornate architecture that ranges from baroque to neoclassical, art spanning from classical to modern eclectic, and a culinary scene that varies from Hungarian to Honduran, Budapest is a cultural trip around the world with an Eastern European touch. Hungary’s capital of Budapest still bears the wounds of World War II and the 1956 Uprising. The city pays tribute to the past, as well as welcoming the future with open arms, in the forms of its vibrant nightlife, status as a commercial and financial hub, and bearing the second fastest-developing urban economy in Europe. Whether you’re just passing through or staying put, Budapest has something for everyone.

Frequently asked questions

Where is Budapest located?

Hungary’s capital city of Budapest lies in a strategically placed location, and is one of the most populous cities in the country. Propped at the center of the Carpathian Basin, the city sits on an ancient and well-travelled route, linking the rolling hills of Transdanubia with the Great Hungarian Plain, which stretches for miles. The city is bisected by the River Danube in northern central Hungary, and made up of three unified cities with Buda and Óbuda on the west bank of the Danube, and Pest on the east bank. Despite its landlocked location within Europe, Budapest is accessible to several other popular European cities including Vienna, Warsaw, and Prague.

What are some can't-miss attractions in Budapest?

  • Gellért Baths: Housed in the world-famous Gellért Hotel, Gellért Spas is one of the many spas in the city that receives a portion of 70 million litres of therapeutic waters from 118 natural thermal springs each day. Once destroyed by the horrors of World War II, the Baths underwent a renovation in 2008 which restored the building back to its former classical glory. Bathe in the revitalizing waters, packed with re-energizing healing properties, and emerge as a newly refreshed person. However, despite its name, the baths aren’t the only thing that is offered. Under the roof of this magnificent Art Nouveau-style building, the sumptuous spa also offers guests to utilise their steam room, Finnish sauna, sun terrace, massage rooms, as well as several other saunas, plunge pools, and thermal baths.
  • Danube Promenade: Soak in the panoramic vistas of the Budapest cityscape as you walk along the Danube Promenade. Stretching from the Elizabeth Bridge to the Chain Bridge, this waterfront walkway is perfect for those who wish to see the city by taking a scenic and relaxed stroll. Spot the Buda Castle, the Liberty Statue on Gellert Hill, and the Fisherman’s Bastion on the Buda side of the river, then enjoy the elegant eateries, sophisticated cafes, and a range of detailed architecture on the Promenade side.
  • Chocolate Museum: Budapest might be far away from Belgium in all its chocolate-making splendor, but that does not mean one can’t explore the intricacies of the delicious cocoa treat a little closer to home. Lying on the outskirts of Budapest, the Chocolate Museum is a perfect day out for those with a sweet tooth. Learn all about the history of Hungarian Chocolate which is rich in more than one way, and go on a Willy-Wonka inspired journey, complete with additional tasting sessions. Dip marzipan balls into the flowing chocolate fountain, make your own handmade chocolates and explore the vast collection of gorgeous historic Hungarian paintings hanging within the museum. A cultural exploration complete with chocolate? We’re in!

  • Cegléd: Lying about 70 kilometers southeast of the Hungarian capital, the city of Cegléd is a welcome respite away from the hustle and bustle of the capital. Gaze across the city skyline and you will discover a scene that looks like it has been picked from the pages of storybooks. Congregations of emerald green trees surround red brick roofed buildings with the blue dome of the Calvinist Great Church serving as the centerpiece. Known for its richness in thermal water, Cégled is an optimum locale for a relaxing spa getaway.
  • Vác: Located 35 kilometers north of Budapest on the eastern bank of the Danube river, Vác sits at the foot of the Naszály Mountain in the foothills of the Carpathians. A commercial center that also serves as a popular summer resort for local Budapesters, as well as foreign visitors, there is plenty to do and see. Known for its stunning baroque architecture that is ever present within the city center, Vác is not only a balm for the souls of those who wish to get away from the chaos of the capital, but also a treat for the eyes.
