    Pleasant enough square which seems to be one of the city's main transport hubs with the Metro & Trams and hence quite busy at peak times. There are several eateries and bars and shops here too.

    English: Very good panoramic view for free. (I recommend the cable car to get up, it takes 10-15 minutes to get up there)

    Magyar: Nagyon jó panoráma ingyen. (Ajánlom a libegőt a feljutáshoz, innen 10-15 perc feljutni)

    It was nice. The cathedral was pretty. But there are better ones too. If you missed it see another one in a different country or city. It cost about $9 per person.

    If you ever come to Bp you must take a visit to “Római Part”. It is a little bit far away from the center but if the weather is good and you want to have a little rest from the busy city visit this place. There are a lot of small restaurat where you can eat fish, chicken and some other tipical hungarian food. There are a lot of place where you can drink or eat an icecream. The place is just next to the Danube and you can go down to the coast. It is wort to come to this place.

    A very nice and busy square with lots of cafes, bars, restaurants around the edge. Very popular with a nice atmosphere. This square leads onto the nearby Liberty Bridge.

    During a river cruise of Eastern Europe, our group visited Becsi Kapu Ter (Vienna Gate Square) Budapest, in the Buda Palace District. The square, located in Old Town , is dominated by the imposing enchanting building of the National Archives of Hungary. Also situated on the square is the Lutheran Church of Buda and the Vienna Gate. The main attraction is the beautiful yellow painted Carmelite church. A must see.

    Back in the day this area had a reputation, for prostitution, and people of il repute, however with the metro and a renovation of the square, it is a lively place at night, and to be enjoyed during the day with shopping in the market, or just taking a moment, with the plenty of seating.

    Szent Gellert Square is a nice little square in front of the Gellert Hotel facing the River Danube.
    The best option to go there is just by walking through the Liberty Bridge.
    Also if you are there do not forget to go to check out the metro station of Gellert Square underneath (M4 line), which is a nice piece of architecture!

    Wandering around this part of the city we passed this great looking building and I must say it impressed us.
    Located on Anker Koz and along Deak Ferenc Utca, the building was constructed between 1908-1910,its an iconic, emblematic building, very photographic, I love the look of the facade, so beautiful to view ,its a building that commands your attention, its most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area and easy to locate along Anker Koz.

    It is just a 10-15 minute drive from the downtown. There is a huge car park at the entrance.
    There are restaurants all along the damn and the surrounding is very nice.

    Since I know the speed of a renovation or restoration in Hungary by experience, better if you avoid Szervita Square for a few years. In the Castle District took years to change the pavement to suit the style of the place better, and this is just one example. I remember the not so old story when the Castle Bazaar was renovated. The project initially planned for just $ 9 billion and had a total budget of about $ 20 billion finally. Handed over at least three times because something was still missing, and when I visited it about a year after the final handover, all the door handling were wobbling. Hopefully, Szervita Square will be luckier and beautiful, but don’t hold your breath. About the plans, it will be finished in December 2020. Seeing is believing. Probably my main problem is that I don’t like the building that will be erected there. It isn’t valid in that way. I love the premise; just into the Szervita Square, I wouldn’t put this too big ultramodern edifice. That square needs more air, more greens. Maybe I’m wrong, and it will be splendid. The current prominent houses will stay, so will be able to enjoy some 18th-century baroque architecture, the downtown St. Anne's Church, the old foundation with the new Virgin Mary statue on the top, Martinelli's former Palace of Invalides, the neoclassical the Schaffer House and the famous Art Nouveau Turkish bank house.
    Also, there is the Rózsavölgyi Music Store, and next to it, an elegant Pharmacy.
    Why I don’t advise to visit it now, because of the ongoing development. It is hard to walk from the containers and other building materials, and in front of the church you have to share a one -way road with two -ways traffic, sometimes jumping behind a parking car or a rubbish bin. Wen I wanted to take a photo of the facade of the Turkish Bankhouse, I had to squeeze myself in between building materials, rubbish bins, et.c, but I still wasn’t able to step back enough.
    Be patient, and go a few years later on.

    It is one of the richest arboretum in Hungary. It’s located in a huge area and has about 2000 trees, bushes and other plants, and flowers, of course. We got there by bus (27) from Moricz Zs. korter, it’s easy to find, only one stop. We were very lucky because the weather was sunny and the cherry trees were in bloom. It was really beautiful. We walked aroud and sat on a bench and relax. It’s calm and you can forget your problems there.
