BUDAPEST- Hungary ❤
I have never been to Budapest, but I can only begin to imagine what it would be like and all the adventures one could go on. I don’t really know anyone who has been there, so I think I am going to add it to that very long list of experiences I would like to go on.
With stunning architecture, refreshing thermal baths, and a culture that can be unique, Budapest lives up to all that it has to offer.
English is very commonly spoken. It’s a must visit for tourists looking for something a little off the beaten path.
Budapest is somehow filled with ancient treasures – like Roman baths, and hip and fun “ruin pubs.” These might have lines that stretch down the streets with people clambering to get in.
Whether you're after history, beautiful scenery, or want a more budget-friendly Europe trip, this is the place to be. Budapest is still somewhat undiscovered, so you'll get the place to yourself and uncover hidden gems along the way.
The city is divided by the Danube river: east is Pest and west is Buda. The two sides are VERY different. Which makes it fun. Take your time to explore both sides.
Pest is the flat, more urban commercial half of Budapest. There is lots to see and do here so make sure to spend a good amount of your time here.
Chain Bridge – The bridge crossing the Danube is absolutely stunning and well worth a glance and picture opportunity. In addition to Will Smith dancing the “Keke” on it, the Chain Bridge also happens to be the first permanent bridge built across the Danube in Hungary.
Shoes on the Danube – This memorial commemorates those that were killed during WWII. People (mostly Jews) were rounded up, told to strip down, and a firing squad shot them on the banks of the Danube. A chilling reminder that while this city is beautiful and thriving, it went through some very rough times.
Budapest is host to some of the grandest cafes and restaurants and the oppulance of it all is just something out of a story book. It is also home to some of the coolest bars, especially the Ruin Bars.
Budapest’s 7th district, on the Pest side of the Danube, or as it is also known as the Jewish Quarter is the home of these wacky bars. After WWII the area was left to decay so it was a perfect place to redevelop. In the late 1990’s ruthless developers started buying up these properties, razing them to the ground and putting up unsightly buildings. Local activists began campaigning to preserve the cultural heritage of the area. They succeeded and the Jewish District was given protective status.
However, they still did not have funds available for restoration purposes. In the summer of 2004, a café and open-air cinema opened in the ruins of an old factory called Szimpla Kert.
This was the birth of ruin bars in Budapest. Most of the bars can be found in or around the streets behind the Great Synagogue. All of these bars have their own quirky style.
Essentially they need an abandoned building, space to serve drinks and an area to party in. Many of them have DJs or live music, some offer food while others have accommodation available.
I am completely taken by this beautiful city and I look forward to visiting.
