Join us and discover Budapest. Explore downtown, admire the top sights, and learn from a local. There are two types of people: those who love Budapest and those who have not visited it yet.
As our planet spins on its axis at about 1,670 km/h, and as we sit some 4.2 light-years from the star Proxima Centauri, we get to explore one particularly fascinating point of the universe- the place called Budapest.
If you join me, you'll see the remarkable St. Stephen's Basilica and the astonishing Parliament.
You'll wonder at the Art Nouveau masterpieces.
You'll hear the heartbreaking story of the Shoes Memorial.

Budapest in Winter: Cold-Weather Guide and 3-Day Plan
Budapest in winter is exceptionally rewarding for travellers who appreciate outdoor thermal baths in freezing weather, lower accommodation rates, and classic seasonal markets. Although days are short and temperatures regularly hover around freezing, the city's grand architecture, world-renowned indoor bathhouses, and hearty comfort food make it well worth a trip between December and February.
