Shop with locals or try some traditional Hungarian food at Central Market Hall.

Walk from Andrássy Avenue to Heroes’ Square and you’ll understand why Budapest is often called the Paris of the East

Checkout Váci utca street which is one of the main pedestrian thoroughfares and perhaps the most famous street of central Budapest, Hungary. It features a large number of restaurants and shops catering primarily to the tourist market.

Climb the stairs (or take the elevator) to the Basilica’s observation deck for some of the best views of Budapest.

Take a helicopter tour for a bird’s eye view of the city.
