Useful information about the flight from Edinburgh to Budapest
Historical and atmospheric Budapest
Straddling the Danube, the cities of 'Buda and Pest' slowly amalgamated until in the mid 19th century they became the city as it is today. A brilliantly well preserved city, Budapest is sometimes called the Paris of eastern Europe. The Castle Buda is one of the most dominating buildings, and was constructed in the 13th century, but with many additions over the years. It is an amazing example of the sort of fascinating buildings there are to see.
Best of Budapest
Budapest is very cold in winter, but April to October sees great weather for sightseeing, and on 20th August, the national holiday, sees wonderful fireworks, sound and light shows along the Danube. Mid March heralds the 14 days of Budapest Spring Festival, great for art and culture with numerous events. Then, in mid August for 7 days, visitors can enjoy 'Sziget', a large open air festival.
Budapest travel tips
Prices are cheaper in Hungary than in Britain, and the cuisine is hearty and rich. Try the paprika laden Hungarian Goulash, and there are also very good cakes to try. Lunch will set you back around 1500 HUF, with a beer costing about 300 HUF. Even star restaurant food in Budapest is relatively cheap, so make the most of it.
