Destroyed by fire in World War II, this imposing 13th-century palace was rebuilt with modern interiors while incorporating hidden walls and medieval structures that remained hidden over the centuries.

Besides the monuments, you get a breathtaking panorama of the Danube with the Chain Bridge and the Pest side of the city on the opposite side of the river.The views are very similar to those from Fisherman’s Bastion. And being connected to the Chain Bridge, the palace complex is breathtaking at night when the overpass and the Castle are lit up. Be sure to also take a trip on the fully restored historic Castle Funicular Railway, which departs from the Buda end of the famous Széchenyi Chain Bridge and deposits travelers in the heart of the Castle District.This entire historic landmark is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and can be explored either on your own or as part of an informative walking tour.

We visited the Visegrad Citadel by car on a sunny weekday. Parking was easy, it costs HUF 300 per hour. The parking area was limited. The citadel is an absolute must to see. You cannot get that view of the River Danube anywhere else! :-)

Vajdahunyad castle is definitely a must, when in Budapest ???? It offers you cool architecture, nice park area for a walk and also agricultural museum ???? It's one of the most beautiful small castles that I have seen, especially in the winter time ????

Built in the 1760s by a Count. When the male line ceased it became a summer residence for royalty. During Soviet times it became a barracks. The rooms open to the public look elegant. Some of the items on display are original and others reproduction. Very worthwhile visit.
