Sightseeing

In Budapest, the architectural and cultural heritage of centuries have mixed with the novelties of our days. The valued remains gradually regain their old looks in accordance with the financial possibilities. For those who are planning to spend only some days with sightseeing, it is worth planning in advance. The Buda castle, the bank of the river danube andDuna view - Hotel Thomas Andrássy street are world heritage sights, it would be a pity to miss the opportunity to see all of them. Museums of the castle district, Matthias church, Fisherman's Bastion (Halászbástya) and the view from it are also compulsory. Andrássy street is a defining part of the city of Budapest. Underneath it, goes the underground which was the first one on the continent, with stations that kept the appearance they had 130 years ago. Until Kodály Körönd, huge palace-like blocks of flats align the boulevard leading to Heroes' Square (Hősök tere) which ends in the Millennium monument. There stands the tomb of the unknown soldier, The Museum of Fine Arts, and Műcsarnok. Behind the monument stands the Városliget pond with an artificial island that gives room to Vajdahunyad castle, near to the Budapest Zoo, the Circus (Nagycirkusz) and Vidámpark, an amusement park with many forms of entertainment offered.
