This enchanting and exotic capital of Hungary straddles the banks of the Danube and is divided into two distinct parts, traditional Buda and more modern Pest. Budapest is aptly called "Paris of the East," for its beautiful evening illumination and reflected lights in the Danube's waters.
Budapest Attractions
The old city features amazing examples of architecture such as Buda Castle, the baroque Parliament building, Chain Bridge and Matthias church, where the coronation ceremonies of Hungarian Kings were held. Gellert Hill, high above the city, offers not-to-be missed views.
Budapest Activities
Everyone can find their choice of sports in Budapest. The most popular place in Budapest for sports is the Margaret Island - even the Prime Minister of Hungary is often seen jogging on some early mornings with his entourage.
Hungarians have always been avid sports people: during the history of the summer Olympics, Hungarians have brought home 460 medals, of which 158 are gold. The top events in which Hungarians have excelled are fencing, swimming, canoeing, wrestling and track & field sports.
Their affinity to water sports is unmistakably due to the presence of the Lake Balaton and the Danube, which have provided ample practice grounds since the beginning of times.
Beside classic sports, recreational modern sports such as bowling, pool billiard, darts, go-carting, wakeboarding and squash are very popular in Budapest, and extreme sports are also gaining ground.
The capital of Slovakia, Bratislava is filled with baroque city palaces that have been lovingly restored and is dominated by an enormous castle that sits 300 feet above the Danube. After decades of communist rule, Bratislava is once again transforming itself into one of central Europe's most vibrant cities. See St. Martin's Cathedral in the historic Old Town, Michael's Gate and the neoclassic Archbishop's Palace as well as centuries-old squares filled with shops and cafes.
Bratislava Attractions
Visit 13th-century Bratislava Castle, which offers a breathtaking view of three countries, the Gothic cathedral of St Martin, site of the coronation of many Hungarian kings and queens. On your own, explore the Old Town Hall and the stunning Mirbach Palace.
