WELCOME
TO BUDAPEST

The capital of Hungary, known by many as the "Pearl
of the Danube", is undoubtedly one of the most beautifully
located cities in the world. The river Danube runs through the middle
of the metropolis of two million, dividing hilly Buda with its narrow
cobbled streets and mixture of medieval and neo-classical buildings
from the Pest plain with its wide boulevards. Because of the picturesque
panorama offered by the river and its bridges, the Parliament, the
imposing Royal Castle, Fishermen's Bastion and the impressive Danube
Embankment, UNESCO placed this site on the World heritage list.
The guests will find side by side the remains
of fortresses and buildings from Roman times, still operating Turkish
baths, Gotic and Baroque buildings, and the incredible rich Art
Noveau architectural heritage. There is no other capital city in
the world with close on 100 thermal springs and 12 medicinal baths
within its boundaries, where 19 million gallons of thermal water
rise to the surface each day.
It is a city where the pleasing harmony of different architectural
styles and superb structures, the cafés, gastronomy and culture
are combined with legendary hospitality blend into an unforgettable
experience for visitors.
