We stumble upon these little brass plaques in the pavement of the streets of Budapest, we see most of them on the Jewish Quarter walking tour. These little plaques remember people who were killed in the Holocaust, placed in the pavement in front of the building they lived, their last address of choice.

I love the idea of never forgetting people. I love how discreet these little plaques are and how they make you think, the actual train of thoughts that can take you much further than intended. I also love that this is probably the largest ever Holocaust memorial, still, you only see little parts of it. The amazing project of Gunter Demnig began in 1996 and about 95,000 plaques have now been placed across Europe. Don’t forget to look “down” sometimes. I can promise you that once you notice a plaque, you’ll all of a sudden see them all. Here is a little gallery of the ones I’ve come across the last couple of days.

A little photo gallery from the thousands of photographs I’ve been taking while walking around my Beautiful Budapest. These are not the most famous attractions, but some hidden gems that you can discover when you book a tour with me. The reason why I’m sharing these with you is that I very much like the colours, the vibes, the ambience of these places. Feel free to contact me for more details!

Riding Budapest Eye, the ferris wheel located in the heart of the city centre is always a great experience, especially when the weather is nice and you have an amazing view from the birds’ eyes view 🙂

Belgrade church, a very popular spot of our Danube Bend or Szentendre tours. This is a real hidden little gem surrounded by trees, the Serbian Orthodox Church of Szentendre. Unfortunately the church is only open for visitors on weekends, however, I highly recommend to see the interior to see the magnificent iconostasis.

 

Here is another Budapest attraction that I see almost every day, thanks to all the Budapest tours that you’re booking with me. Have a look at how the Fisherman’s Bastion looks like in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Did you know that Budapest has multiple beaches where you can swim in the Danube? My personal favourite spot is Római Part with magnificent views, very unique character, a nice range of recreational activities, cool bars and great food. Don’t miss to walk around a little bit to see the old boathouses!

My travellers always ask me which baths are the best, which one they should go to. There are plenty, they are all different. You can book the Budapest Baths tour with me so that you can get more ideas about the Budapest baths and their history. Here is a little video for you to show what you can expect when you go to Széchenyi baths in the City Park:

You can reserve tickets online in advance if you’d like to skip the line.

The views from the top of Buda hills are magnificent. There are some great spots to watch sunrise or sunset from, one of my favourite spots is on top of Gellért hill, by the Statue of Liberty. Don’t miss the views during your stay in Budapest!
