Things to do in Budapest in June

1

Széchenyi Thermal Bath

Soak in 38°C thermal water in a Neo-Baroque palace — the most famous bath in Budapest. The bath party (sparty) on Saturday evenings turns it into an outdoor dance party.

2

Fisherman's Bastion at Dawn

The fairy-tale Neo-Gothic and Neo-Romanesque terrace on Castle Hill offers the finest view of the Parliament building across the Danube. Go at sunrise when it's almost empty.

3

Ruin Bar Crawl

Budapest invented the ruin bar — Szimpla Kert was the original, built in a ruined factory. The Jewish Quarter is now filled with dozens, each stranger and more wonderful than the last.

Hungarian Parliament Tour

The third-largest parliament building in the world with a stunning Neo-Gothic interior — 691 rooms, 29 staircases, and the Hungarian Crown Jewels. Book tours online.

Budapest's stunning iron-and-tile covered market — paprika, foie gras, Tokaji wine, embroidered tablecloths, and the best langos (deep-fried flatbread with sour cream) upstairs.

The historic royal palace complex above the Danube — home to the Hungarian National Gallery and Castle Museum, with cobblestone streets, Matthias Church, and panoramic views of Pest across the river.
