Budapest, often called “the Paris of the East,” is the largest city in Hungary. It is located in central Hungary, right in the heart of Europe. The city lies along the Danube River and is the amalgamation of three cities- Buda, Pest, and Old Buda (Obuda). Several famous bridges connect these areas, highlighting the differences between the historical, hilly Buda side and the lively, busy Pest side. Budapest is famous for its rich history, beautiful architecture, thermal baths, and the Danube River. It also has a vibrant cultural scene, delicious food, and offers good value for visitors.
