Day 1

Budapest - The CityThe early history of Budapest dates back to the Roman ages, as many important settlements of the Empire were located in what we callHungary today. Present-day Budapest was born in 1873 with the unification of Buda, Óbuda, and Pest, and this was also the period that sawseveral large-scale construction works, having largely contributed to the postcard-perfect outlook the Paris of the East has today.

It was, however, a long way to come: the country was under the rule of the Ottoman Empire for over 200 years, and has a history heavilyintertwined with the Hapsburg dynasty. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was dissolved with the outbreak of WWI, and even though the outcome ofthe second war brought relief to a Hungary with a populous Jewish community, years of Soviet suppression followed.

In the 1990s, the change of regime opened up a world of possibil i ties for a war-torn country, but the past wil l never be forgotten. Today,turbulent history is remembered in finely preserved landmarks scattered across the city, coexisting with vibrant young venues celebrating awhole new era.

Budapest - Do & SeeBudapest offers plenty of entertainment all year round: from green parks and soothing thermal baths to architectural gems and museums, to beexplored in city quarters all different in character.

Budapest - CafesFrom opulent, fin de siècle cafés to new wave coffee houses, Budapest never fails to entice the lovers of caffeine. Confectioneries too aboundto offer you traditional Hungarian desserts: make sure you try a good strudel or kürtőskalács, a spit cake best had with cinnamon coating (look inmarkets or Váci street). Winter favourites include walnut puree with whipped cream, and flódni, a rich dessert layered with poppy seed, walnut,and apple. Whenever your visit is, there's plenty to see in the city to walk all these off.
