Best Things to Do in Budapest
The thermal baths are king here, but there are plenty of other ways to kill a day. World-class museums, island parks, shopping, and cafés are available in spades. Foot it around Castle Hill for a taste of medieval Budapest or spend an afternoon sipping coffee in a café with young Hungarians. However, save some energy for the nightlife—when the evening rolls around, this city kicks into another gear.
