1. St. Stephen's Basilica (Szent Istvan Bazilika)
Located within a beautiful square. Had to pay small entrance fee, however it was well worth it if only to have a few moments to myself to contemplate the day ahead. Basilica is beautiful inside, very ornate however t may not be for everyone.
Note visit again at night when lit up.
2. Chain Bridge (Szechenyi lanchid)
Very impressive with great views of the danube. Very safe as there is a dedicated footpath on either side of the bridge.
Note: The four lions statues have no tonuges.
3. Buda Castle - Royal Palace (Kiralyi Palota)
Hint: if feeling energetic turn left after crossing the Chain bridge and walk about 30 minutes to far end of castle. This view from this approach make it very rewarding
4. Labyrinth of Buda Castle (Budavari Labirintus)
Small entrance fee 1,500 HUF. You are left to yourself to find your way around. Dark and at times damp, however this is a unique experience not to be missed.
5. Fisherman's Bastion (Halaszbastya)
Beautiful setting with great views of the Danube. No admission charge, unless you want to go to the upper level, teh views will be the same however.
6. Vienna Gate
Gate leaving the castle district leading to the road to Vienna.
7. Mammut Mall
Large Shopping Mall
9. Margaret Island (Margitsziget)
