Going to Budapest next year and wonder if someone can advise me some nice places to have diner or lunch or what ever. Also interested in some tips about the city, museums, shops etc. What is must to see or to do up there.

Thanks

Unfortunately, none of my dining experiences in Budapest while on a choir tour in college were favorable. The best thing that happened in that city is going to a Turkish Bath-house.

Which...you should do...

Very relaxing...

Go to the palaces.

Lots of fun places and plenty of decent eats. I'll post more when I have a sec, but was in Prague and Budapest one year ago for Christmas/Birthday. When are you going?

I have no tips, but only want to post my envy. Budapest is one place I've wanted to visit for years. Enjoy.

Maybe you should check out a lonely planet. I have been getting a lot of good information from those books. (and I have been travelling quite a lot)

I haven't been to Budapest in a couple of years, but the major sites are:
-Gellert Hill to get nice views of the city/river
-Parliament
-Buda Castle
-Gellert Baths
-Chain Bridge at night
-the Great Synagogue
-Heroes Square
-Margaret Island

Everything is pretty central, and the public transporation is fine.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of stuff...perhaps take a look at Hungarian tourist sites???

EDIT: just remembered Vaci Utca for (tourist) shopping.

Budapest?? Is that in France? Oh, sorry wrong thread.


I can't believe we do not have any Hungarian Head-fi'rs, so I 'search'd and found the attached post.

I hope this helps.

Down by the Danube is a restaurant called Mene Sarda (sp?) Their logo if you will is a saddle. Great food prepared at your table, great service and the help speaks english. Very friendly. I would recommend the Austrian beer too.

Enjoy, Budapest is really awesome!

Cool, we have the first place and name of it, thanks. What kind of food, local?
