Buda Castle District - Budapest, Hungary

The Buda Castle District in Budapest is a captivating historical neighborhood that exudes grandeur & charm. Perched on Castle Hill, overlooking the Danube River, it is a UNESCO World Heritage site & a must-visit destination. The district is dominated by the majestic Buda Castle, a magnificent palace that dates back to the 13th century & served as the royal residence for Hungarian kings. Stepping into the district feels like entering a time capsule, with its narrow cobblestone streets, medieval buildings & beautiful squares. You can explore the Fisherman's Bastion, an ornate terrace offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city & admire the stunning Matthias Church with its colorful tile roofs. Beyond its architectural wonders, the Buda Castle District is also home to several museums, including the Hungarian National Gallery. To get here, simply take the Budapest Castle Hill Funicular, by bus or taxi. #wecreate #tripblazers #budapest #darwintravel
