Introduction
Budapest, Hungary’s capital is bisected by the River Danube.
The 19th-century Chain Bridge connects the hilly Buda district with flat Pest. Budapest is a city of thermal baths, cafes, striking turn-of-the-century architecture, and most of all, a city of the Danube, “whose gentle waves,” according to the great Hungarian poet Attila Jozsef, “embrace past, present, and future.” The Hungarian capital offers one of the most striking metropolitan panoramas in Europe. Budapest is a city of music, from the classics of Bartok and Kodaly to the contemporary fusion of folk, klezmer, jazz and Gypsy sounds. Long hidden behind the Iron Curtain, Budapest is rightfully regaining its reputation as one of the most vibrant capitals of central Europe.
