I Arrived in Budapest after an 7 hour bus ride. I really do enjoy this bus rides because the small citys you drive trough and the views of the landscapes that Europe has to offer.
When i arrived in Budapest, Hungarys capital located in the heart of Europe, I knew it was beautiful and had a lot of history.
I think there’s something for everyone to do in Budapest. Here’s 6 reasons why you should travel to Budapest, Hungary!
- It’s very cheap in Budapest, 1€ = 319 HUF. Let me put that in an example for you: If you want to grab a beer in a restaurant it’s 500-600HUF = 1.6-1.9€. 15 min taxi ride will cost you somewhere around 2000-3000 HUF = 6-9€ depending on taxi company and driver. Make sure you get fixed price!
- Budapest is probably the most preserved city in Europe after WWII and has many tourist attractions to visit.
- The night life is incredible! There’s pubs and clubs in every corner of Budapest. In all different categories. Gay clubs, RnB clubs, EDM clubs, Rock n Roll clubs just for some example. Check this club out i visited Akvárium Club.
- Budapest has most thermal baths and Spa among all of the worlds capitals. I love the kind of relaxation you get on a thermal bath or a spa. That’s why i visited this one Széchenyi thermal bath.
- Like everything else, Accommodation is very cheap. I was living right next to Szabadság Square. Almost as near the city centre as possible. I booked trough AirBnB and payed for 2 persons 163€ for 3 nights. The apartment could fit 4 persons or even more!
- If you love travel and this isn’t your only stop on your journey like myself, There’s buses that can take you where ever (almost). I booked a bus to Bratislava, Slovakia. It will take 2.30hrs and costed me 7€.
So, now om I’m off to Bratislava, Slovakia!
