Budapest is a true gem of central
European cities where past meets present without destroying the charm
of the city. Divided into 2 separate cities with Pest on one side of
the Danube river and Buda on the other, both sides are filled with
sights to see. Among the most impressive is the dazzling white
parliament building with its many spires and domes in addition to the
palace, fortress and numerous churches on the adjacent banks.
Just taking a stroll along the river
walkway looking at the city as a whole and it's many unique bridges
makes for a perfect day. Meandering through one of Budapest's busy
pedestrian streets also will have you gawking at each and every
building all being historic but maintaining a youthful and vibrant
appearance. This is the perfect city for a backpacker to drop their
back and kick back and relax as it offers a plethora of sights at a
leisurely pace, extremely affordable and a transportation hub to the
rest of central and eastern Europe.
