Thermal Baths
Numerous thermal baths abound in Budapest. These baths are incredibly relaxing, and the experience itself is quite beautiful. There are generally two types of thermal baths that exist in Budapest. There are more contemporary baths that cropped up in the city around the turn of the 19th century. These baths have a rather Victorian and distinctly European feel about them, and more of these baths have numerous modern amenities, including outdoor pools to enjoy during the summer. There are also the far older Turkish-style baths. These baths predate the Victorian baths by three centuries and have a far more ornamental and distinctly Oriental aesthetic about them.
The Castle District
The castle district must be visited for a number of different reasons. The first and most important reason being, of course, that it houses Buda Palace. Buda Palace is an incredibly ornate, large, and distinct-looking palace that sits on one of the highest points in all of Budapest. Its views of the city and the Danube river are absolutely breathtaking and unbeatable. In addition to the palace itself, the district offers numerous sights to see. Museums abound in the palace itself and the district offers paths to travel and small shops to visit, not to mention the beautiful houses that abound in the neighborhood.
City Park
City Park is the largest park in Budapest, and it is truly a sight to behold. It is located behind the equally impressive monument and meeting point Heroes Square. The park itself is sprawling, with plenty of paths to traverse, offering scenic views of Budapest's natural beauty and flora. Many areas in the park are host to food courts, where many immigrants from Cambodia and Thailand gather to sell delicious foodstuffs. Speaking of food, the park itself is host to several restaurants, including the world famous Gundel.
