5 days in Budapest Itinerary

You might consider the city of Budapest, divided by the Danube River into two distinctive cities--Buda and Pest--to be essentially one large World Heritage Site.

Budapest is known for historic sites, spas, and nightlife. Your plan includes some of its best attractions: get a sense of history and politics at Hungarian Parliament Building, contemplate the long history of Liberty Statue, take in the architecture and atmosphere at St. Stephen's Basilica (Szent Istvan Bazilika), and take in the spiritual surroundings of Matthias Church.

In May, plan for daily highs up to 25°C, and evening lows to 11°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 14th (Tue) to allow time to travel back home.
