What to do?
One day:
1: Hsk tere (Heroes’ Square).
- Millenary Monument
- the imposing buildings of Museum of Fine Arts (on the left) and the Art
Gallery (on the right).
Take the underground (known as M1 or yellow line) to Vrsmarty tr (this is the last station).
2: Go to the Danube bank (so called „Dunakorz”) on the Vigad utca or on the Dek F. utca.
- enjoy the beautiful view of the Danube with the Chain Bridge, the Buda
Castle and the Gellrt hill on the Buda side
3: Take the tram number 2 and go to Kossuth tr (take that tram, which goes toward the Chain Bridge).
- on the Kossuth tr there is the Parliament building
Then take the underground (known as M2 or red line) to Moszkva tr (this is the last station). Here try to find the so called „Vrbusz” (the sign of it is a little castle) it’s a little bus, goes from Vrfok utca. Go by this bus to the Castle district. I recommend, to get off at Szenthromsg tr (4th stop). Here you find:
4: - Matthias church
- Fishermen’s bastion
- enjoy the beautiful little streets with nice buildings
Then go again by the Vrbusz or on foot (along on Trnok utca or ri utca) to Dsz tr. From here go on foot to Szt. Gyrgy tr (along on Sznhz utca or Szt. Gyrgy utca).
5: - Royal Palace
From Szt. Gyrgy tr go by the Funicular (so called „Sikl”. Service days: at the operating hours every monday of unpair weeks from the begining of operating hours - 15 h). It takes you to Clark dm tr, in front of the Chain Bridge.
6: Go along on the bridge on foot and enjoy the view of the city.
Get on the bus number 4 (red; on Saturdays and on public holidays doesn’t run) to Andrssy t (2nd stop from Clark dm tr). Or go on foot to Andrssy t: from Roosevelt tr-Jzsef Attila utca).
7: Go a few steps on Bajcsy-Zsilinszky t to the St. Stephen Basilica (Szent Istvn bazilika). Go in, or have a look at it from the outside.
This is the end of the one day tour by me.
