Visiting Budapest, Hungary


Budapest, "Queen of the Danube," is steeped in history, culture and natural beauty. Get your camera ready for the Roman ruins of the Aquincum Museum, Heroes' Square and Statue Park, resting place for the statues of fallen Communist leaders. Don't miss the 300-foot dome of St. Stephen's Basilica, the landmark Chain Bridge or a ride up the funicular to medieval Castle Hill. For a change of pace, take your time in the city's many museums, picnic at Margaret Island or relax in a thermal bath.
Best fare found from Newark to Budapest: €510
