Budapest

Travel affordably by train to Budapest to see one of Europe's most beautiful cities. Discover the Buda Castle, Andras Avenue, Heroes' Square, and the Millennium Underground Railway, all inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. You can also visit the most famous symbol of the city – the Neo-Gothic building of the Hungarian Parliament, and you don't want to miss a ride on the yellow tram.

Relax on bar and restaurant terraces and try Hungarian cuisine, and in the evenings, you can visit the shops on Váci Street and spend the evening on a boat, in a csarda or one of the many clubs.
