  A truly remarkable medieval building with lots of character and great photos opportunities. Located in a park with lots of greenery, this is a must visit if in the city.  more »

  Total and pleasant surprise. Seems so out-of-place as compared to the other sites of Budapest. Lovely grounds to walk around.  more »

  1 Euro to get into the higher tower with a tour! The view is beautiful as well. Nice grounds to walk around and see other things. Wear good walking shoes. This location is not central so plan to spend time getting there (40 min from old city)

  Vajdahunyad castle gives home for many different shows / exposures time to time which are worth to visit. Although you can't visit the entire castle you can walk through its awesome yard, sit down the shore of its tiny lake which are a very relaxing timepiece.
