City breaks to Budapest are truly en vogue these days, and it’s not hard to see why. With its cultural pastiche of opera, theatre, art and wine-making, Budapest is booming. Hungary’s capital is made up of two unified cities, Buda and Pest, distinct in charm and character and divided by the silvery Danube River. While Buda is brimming with elegant architecture, like the Castle and Fisherman’s Bastion, Pest thrives with a vibrant nightlife and burgeoning business and commerce scene.
