Budapest Wishes You Were Here

June 10, 2010 By Suzy

It is no secret that I love to find the best views of a city when I travel. While in the heat of the day yesterday I hiked to one of the best views of Florence, Bret from The Jetpacker was reflecting on one of the views he enjoyed of  Budapest.

Take the funicular up to Buda Castle and suddenly you are 300 feet above Budapest, overlooking the Széchenyi Chain Bridge and St. Stephen’s Basilica, where the mummified hand of Stephen, the first king of Hungary, resides.  From this vantage, you can spot every major landmark in the city… as long as you don’t get distracted by the buskers and strange characters at the top of the hill.



See more of Budapest at The Jetpacker, a fun travel blog that features humorous tales, lists, deals, tips and strange stories from the travel universe.  Make sure to follow them on Facebook or @Jetpacker and have a blast!

    I love Budapest. Excellent city! I recommend spending a day soaking in one of their many spas …

About Suzy Guese

After a childhood of keeping road trips interesting around the U.S, stints in Western Europe as an angsty teen and a study abroad year in Italy in college, I decided to make traveling and writing my way of living. My travels are laced with hints of a redheaded temperament, proof that my hair color is indeed natural. SuzyGuese.com is where I solve packing predicaments, blurt out my travel secrets, rant about nomad injustices and share where the road takes me in hopes that it might take you there too.
