This fortress atop Gellért Hill is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an emblematic symbol of Budapest. Even though it was originally built by the Habsburgs after the Revolution of 1848 as a fortification to discourage uppity Hungarians, today we rather think of Citadella as a symbol of freedom. It is also an excellent lookout point and wedding-photo location, over the beautiful bridges straddling the curving Danube, Buda Castle, Parliament, the Pest embankment and the Buda hills. We also find the Liberation Monument atop the fortress, a dramatic statue that commemorates those who sacrificed their lives for the independence of Hungary, depicting a proud lady who has been watching over Budapest

ne of the city’s main landmarks and the gateway to the City Park or Városliget, Heroes’ Square (Hősök tere) bookends elegant Andrássy út. Construction began in 1896, when citywide developments marked the millennial celebrations of the foundation of the Hungarian state. Two colonnades display 14 emblematic figures from Hungarian history, and form a semi-circle around the centrepiece column, which itself is surrounded by the seven original Magyar chieftains and topped by the Archangel Gabriel. Flanking each side of the square are two major cultural institutions: the Museum of Fine Arts and the Kunsthalle.

The Zugliget Chairlift (Libegő) is a fun alternative mode of transport in the Buda Hills. Transporting passengers between Zugliget and the Erzsébet Lookout Tower, the Chairlift will take you calmly up the side of János Hill in about 15 minutes – while providing pretty panoramic views of the Buda surrounds. The Chairlift is operated by the BKV , with a single adult ticket costing 1000 HUF. It can be reached by taking bus 291 from Nyugati Railway Station to its final stop. Whether for a special date or just a relaxed outing in Buda – a trip on the Chairlift is a unique experience.
Tip: We recommend to try a tasty Magyar lángos here, as well as the frosty treats of Fragola in the summer.

6-12 Állatkerti krt.If you’re planning a hike in Budapest the first step is choosing Buda over Pest; the second step is going up to the Citadel. But, if you’re craving a little more adventure and being super close to nature, you’ll opt for a trip to János-hegy (János Hill). Standing at 528 meters high, the picturesque top of János-hegy is the highest point of Budapest. At the top of the hill you’ll find the Erzsébet-kilátó (Elizabeth Lookout Tower, named after Empress Elizabeth of Austria), built in 1910 in Neo-Romanesque style, from where you can enjoy a breathtaking panorama of the city. On a clear day you may even see as far as 80 kilometres, and the peaks of the High Tatra Mountains.

The Cogwheel Railway (Fogaskerekű) is among the more unique public transportation options in Budapest. The line first opened in 1874, so its red carriages are a somewhat nostalgic sight amongst the Buda scenery. It runs as tramline 60 from Városmajor Park up to Széchenyi Hill, through the Svábhegy area. You will need an ordinary single ticket or transport pass to ride the Cogwheel Railway, and it provides easy access to popular attractions such as Normafa or the Children’s Railway – or you can simply just sit back and enjoy its beautiful views of the Buda Hills!

Orczy Park is one of the largest public green spaces in the inner districts of Budapest. After two years of renovation, it reopened in 2018, with 26 hectares to lay your picnic blanket on. Between Klinikák and Nagyvárad tér metro stops, there is a lake suitable for romantic boat rides and a playground for the little ones. You can also exercise here on the running track or at the outdoor gym. The area is usually bustling with students thanks to the nearby campus of the National University of Public Service.

ocated not far from Hűvösvölgy, Hárs Hill (Hárs-hegy) is an amazing excursion spot with two separate parts. You can take a round trip in the area that will cover 2.7 kilometers. If you aren’t up for such a long hike, you should skip Nagy-Hárs Hill (Nagy-Hárs-hegy) and head straight to Kis-Hárs Hill (Kis-Hárs Hill), a hill topped by the work of architect Imre Makovecz. Shaped liked a spiral, this iron and wood structure looks unstable at first glance, but the view from its top is so amazing that once you’re there you’ll hardly want to leave. Up from a height of 368 meters, you can clearly see the northern side of Buda, downtown Budapest, Várhegy, and the Citadel as well.
