From €120 per person

Budapest, the capital of Hungary, lies along the east and west banks of the River Danube. There was a settlement there even before the Romans came and left their mark. The town has had a long and often troubled history. Evidence of its conquerors can be seen in the varying styles of architecture. The fortress towns, Buda and Pest lay on either side of Danube. These were united into Budapest in 1873. As part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and with its busy waterway leading to the Black Sea, Budapest was a vibrant trading centre. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, and the return to democracy, Budapest is now high on the list of fascinating cities that offer an ideal destination for a short break.
