Day Two
Erzsébetváros & the Jewish Quarter
On your second day, cross the Danube and see Pest at its very finest by walking up
leafy
Andrássy út
, which will take you past unmissable sights such as the
House
of Terror
and
Heroes' Square
, architectural gems like the
Hungarian State
Opera House
and
New Theatre
, and wonderful cafes including
Művész Kávéház
and
Al-
exandra Book Cafe
.
Lunch
Menza
has an excellent-value weekday set lunch.
City Park & Beyond
As you approach City Park, decide whether you want an afternoon of culture or leis-
ure (or both). Heroes' Sq is flanked by the
Museum of Fine Arts
and the
Palace of
Art
, both with excellent exhibitions, and City Park contains the
Budapest Zoo
, the
Capital Circus
, the newly renamed
Holnemvolt Park
('Once Upon a Time' Park) of
amusement rides and the wonderful
Széchenyi Baths
.
Dinner
Robinson
by the lake is a wonderful choice.
City Park & Beyond
You might have drinks in the park at Kertem or boogie the night (and most of the
morning) away at the open-air
Dürer Kert
. But if there happens to be a big-name act
in town they'll be at the nearby
László Papp Budapest Sportaréna.
