The city has many museums, three opera houses, and thermal baths. Buda Castle, the Danube River embankments and the whole of Andrássy Avenue have been recognized as an UNESCO World Heritage Site.

There are two hundred known caves under Budapest, some of which can be visited by tourists and are a popular tourist attraction. In the Buda hills there are caves that are unique for having been formed by thermal waters rising up from below, rather than by rainwater. The Pálvölgy Stalactite Cave is a large and spectacular labyrinth as its shown in Hungary tourist map. Discovered in the 1900s, it is the largest of the cave systems in the Buda hills. The Szemlohegy Cave has no stalactites and has fewer convoluted and claustrophobic passages than the Pálvölgy Cave. The walls in this cave are encrusted with precipitates formed by warm water dissolving mineral salts. The air in the cave is very clean and its lowest level is used as a respiratory sanatorium. The Matyas Cave in the outskirts of the city has a crawling-room-only section called the "sandwich of death."

When you first set eyes on spectacular Buda Castle (Budavári Palota) in the Hungarian capital of Budapest, you will appreciate why so many people consider the city the "Paris of the East." This spectacular historic landmark – now a UNESCO World Heritage Site – ranks right up there with Versailles in France in terms of its majestic proportions and wonderful design. The beautiful Danube River as you can see in Hungary attractions map, flows through Hungary from north to south, and as it passes through Budapest, it splits the city in two. One of the best sunset views of the river and of both Buda and Pest is from the Freedom Bridge, a favorite spot for locals who can often be seen watching the spectacle, along with passing boat traffic, from the bridge huge cables (though at street level). Another great way to get a taste for traditional Hungarian cultural activities is paying a visit to the world-class Hungarian Open Air Museum (Szentendrei Szabadtéri Néprajzi Múzeum).

If you are looking for a vacation that combines some down time with a rich cultural experience, Hungary certainly delivers. There are many historic spa towns and facilities throughout the country that offer everything from simple bathing in regenerative waters to longer stays in lovely spa resorts as its shown in Hungary attractions map. Dominating the attractive skyline of one of the oldest of Hungarian towns, the spectacular edifice that is Esztergom Basilica (Esztergomi bazilika) is well worth the 46-kilometer journey from Budapest. Notable features include its epic altarpiece, a nearly 14-meter-long artwork of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary that holds the record as the world largest painting. Located in the eastern corner of the country, Hortobágy National Park (Hortobágyi Nemzeti Park) is what you might call quintessential Hungary. Here, you can explore a variety of superb attractions and fun things to do, all while soaking up the rich culture of the country people and their traditions.

It's hard to miss the spectacularly proportioned Hungarian Parliament Building (Országház) when exploring Budapest as its mentioned in Hungary attractions map. Whether you are taking a tour boat ride along the Danube (highly recommended) or viewing this huge structure from Castle Hill on the opposite bank, you wont fail to be impressed by its palatial appearance and dimensions, a particular treat at night when it is lit up beautifully. Tihany is one of the most popular holiday resorts on Lake Balaton. Originally an island, this tiny peninsula covers just eight square kilometers yet boasts some of Hungary most extraordinary scenery. Designated a nature reserve, the southwestern section is closed to traffic and is wonderful to explore on foot along the well-marked trail network. Hungary has many delightful historic forts, castles, and palaces, each steeped in history. One of the best known is Eger Castle (Egri vár).
