3 days in Budapest Itinerary

You might consider the city of Budapest, divided by the Danube River into two distinctive cities--Buda and Pest--to be essentially one large World Heritage Site.

Budapest is known for historic sites, sightseeing, and spas. Your trip includes some of its best attractions: ponder the world of politics at Hungarian Parliament Building, take in the views from Szechenyi Lanchid, examine the collection at House of Terror Museum, and take in the spiritual surroundings of St. Stephen's Basilica (Szent Istvan Bazilika).
