In the light of Budapest, a busy city is divided in two by a beautiful big river. I really like the whole environment.
The shores of Buda and Pest are impressive with the high aastle on the one shore and the parlament building on the other shore. This stretch of river must be seen at night, referably on a night cruise as a lot of work has been done to light up and showcase the various buildings.
We did a river cruise at night which was freezing (we did sit outside upstairs!) but definitely worth it so see all the buildings and monuments lit up, especially the Hungarian Parliament. Strangely they all switched off about 10pm - maybe saving money like everyone else!
We did a river cruise on Uniworld Mystery Revealed: Salzburg & the Danube from Salzburg Passau to Budapest. Stopping in Linz, Grein, Durnstein, Bratislava, Vienna and ending in Budapest. Luxury all the way. Wonderful guided tours, special access to attractions, amazing food. The staff can't do enough to make you happy. All inclusive, can’t wait to next cruises.
This is our second visit to Budapest. It is an amazing city situated on the Danube River. The city is divided by the river. Buda on one side and Pest on the other. The city is lit up at night. Beautiful sights.
