Budapest Local City Tips And Events

Castle district

Obvious or not, the Buda Castle and its surroundings are a must to visit. With its romantic small streets, famous buildings like the Fisherman's Bastion and Matthias Church and amazing viewpoints of the city, it's a perfect area for taking pictures for all.

Museum of sweets and selfies

The museum that was created with the purpose of having fun and taking selfies. From unicorns to bubble pools you can find something worthy of a selfie. Jump in a giant ball of sugar pearls, drink a cocktail, take a selfie and spend a day of pure fun.

Thermal baths

I tried to choose only one thermal bath for this list but it’s impossible to decide which one is the best for pictures, so I’ll give the decision to you. Here are my top 3 favourites:

• Széchenyi - The most famous one with in and outdoor pools. This bath has been the home for countless instagram posts, so if you want to check the most popular places off your list, this is for you.
• Rudas - With being on the riverside and having a rooftop pool  with an amazing view this bath is definitely a good choice.
• Gellért - This secession style bath inside the beautiful Gellért Hotel is one to take your breath away.
