Eastern Europe has quickly become one of the most popular destinations for world travelers, with Budapest, Hungary high on the list. It’s actually one of the better destinations for those looking for a vacation on a tight budget as it’s relatively easy to get a really good hotel at a decent price. It’s also a fantastic city for fun, free things to do, which is not necessarily something that can be said for every major European city. What’s particularly great for travelers is that the freebies in Budapest encompass all kinds of interests so that everyone will be happy.
It’s always nice to find a little green space within the city and Budapest has a ton of them. There are many great parks and gardens that are not only beautiful to look at, but which also offer a great way to relax and get away from the busy streets located outside the park gates. If you find bricks and stone more appealing than trees and flowers, then you are in for some great free treats. You might want to start out at the magnificent Vajdahunyad Castle where you are free to wander the grounds and soak up the history of the place.You should also take a trip down to see the monument at Heroes Square, where you may even be lucky enough to catch one of the many free events that take place in that location. The city of Budapest look amazing from street level, but it takes on a whole new level of magnificence when viewed from above and you can do that by taking a trip to the top of Castle Hill. It’s the perfect spot to take in the beauty of the entire city, so think about packing a little lunch and hanging out for a couple of hours.
