Discount City Breaks in Budapest

Discount City Breaks in Budapest - A tale of two cities
A visit to Budapest gives you two cities for the price of one! The majestic Danube River separates Buda and Pest where you can view two contrasting cityscapes. Buda is the historic core with delightful medieval architecture, a host of elegant museums and an enchanting castle. Over the water is Pest with its exquisite baroque mansions along leafy tree lined avenues. A discount city break in Budapest will start off exploring the castle district, filled with art museums and winding cobblestone lanes. Definite must sees include the romantic Chain Bridge, St Matthias Church and the Royal Palace. Certainly no Budapest city break can miss a romantic evening cruise on the meandering river Danube.

If all this intriguing history and artful architecture wasn't enough, Budapest can also claim to be Europe's most alluring health spa destination.

There are also many more homely spas offering indulgent treatments for a fraction of the cost. You can also save a packet dining out in Budapest restaurants. Excellent value Hungarian fare can be had along with tasty street snacks and pastries found on every street corner. Budapest is a delightful place to be at any time of year but really comes alive during its Spring and Autumn music and arts festivals. Expect eccentric street theatre, classical concerts, art exhibitions and opera and many shows are completely free.

Don't think that a Budapest discount city break is lacking in fun and excitement for kids. True it is no Disneyland but does have some enchanting attractions for little ones.
