Gellert Hill

The air is cleaner up here plus you're breathing in the hill's energy from centuries ago. This hill was once covered with vineyards in the 18th century and before that it was a common place for pagans. After being thrown off the hillside in a barrel by pagans, St. Gerard's martyrdom is memorialized in a statute. At the top, check out the Citadella!

The Hungarian Parliament is one of the main touristic attractions in Budapest. Every tourist who visits the Hungarian capital makes at least one picture about it. From the outside… But very few actually see it from the inside. This is a shame because the biggest building in Hungary is keeping a lot of beauty from you.

This very unusual 'sculpture' was erected in 2005 to honour the Jews shot into the Danube by facist Arros Cross during World War II. There are 60 pairs of shoes - both adult and child size. If you like to spend time with thinking about history and people's stories you should go and check. It will definitely make you think.

This is one of the newest, greenest parks and nicest places in Budapest to organize a picknick and rest in the sunset after a long day of sightseeing. You can also find nice restaurants here but as a local, I would recommend you to bring your own (Hungarian) bottle of wein from the store and only buy a töki pompos (Hungarian pizza) here.
