City
Budapest
Majestic Budapest has an Imperial past; more and more of the 19th century grandeur of the Hapsburg Empire is being revealed as the city is restored. The twin cities of Buda, on the west bank of the Danube, and Pest, on the east, were only united in 1873. Gothic Buda has an old-world feel while Pest has broad boulevards. There are no less than 123 thermal pools to choose from. Music lovers should visit the Bela Bartok Museum and the Liszt Museum, as well as the ornate State Opera House; we can obtain tickets for you for the opera and ballet performances given here.
