Tourists’ favourite places in Hungary, part 1 – Budapest

The internet offers hundreds of articles about the top sights to visit or top things to do when one decides to explore a particular place in the world. Such a list was made on magyarorszagkul.nlcafe.hu but with an interesting twist. The site composed a list of the most popular sights in Hungary based on tourists’ reviews on TripAdvisor. Here is a list of tourists’ favourite places in Budapest based on the aforementioned list.

Leisure

The three most popular sights to visit were the Parliament of Budapest, the Fisherman’s Bastion and St. Stephen’s Basilica.

The Building of the Parliament is the absolute favourite.

Tourists said that a walk beside the beautiful Parliament Building is a great leisure activity, and the view from the Fisherman’s Bastion is extraordinary, making the bastion an ideal place for a date. Walking around Gozsdu Courtyard in downtown Budapest or visiting the Zoo and Botanical Garden of Budapest also seemed to be quite popular activities among tourists. The Zoo is one of the most ideal places to visit with children.

Speaking of outdoor activities, the Garden of Philosophy was also popular among TripAdvisor users. The garden is located on Gellért Hill, and just the walk up to the garden is quite refreshing. It is worth mentioning that the Liberty Statue can also be found on Gellért Hill, and it might be a good idea to make an all-day trip and visit both of the gorgeous sights on the hill. The way up might seem physically challenging, but the beautiful view from the top of the hill is more than worth it.
