Buda Castle, Budapest: Hungary’s Labyrinth of Scenic Spots and Skyline Views
Buda Castle, Budapest
No travel expert would miss recommending
the Buda Castle when visiting Budapest,
especially if it’s your first time. What a good way to ring in one’s first
travel to Hungary. Also known as the Royal Palace, and the Royal Castle, the Buda Castle
is the historical castle-complex of the Hungarian Kings in the olden
times. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
With its Medieval, Baroque, and
Modernist architectural styles, the Buda Castle was built on the southern tip
of Castle Hill, and is linked to Clark Ádám Square and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge by the
Castle Hill Funicular. So much history encompasses this massive fortress, which also happens to be connected to the Fisherman’s Bastion with just a few (long) minutes of walking. The first royal residence on the Castle Hill was built here during the Middle Ages, and so much history has been interconnected to it since then – from the Ottoman Era, to the times of famous Hungarian people like Maria Theresa, and Franz Joseph. It’s truly a remarkable work of architecture and culture.
Even from the outside grounds, there
are a lot of sculptural monuments and medieval corners to sightsee. Be sure to
find the mythological Turul bird! Best to spend at least
more than a half day at this place just to explore the outside and inside
grounds of the castle. You can also find the Budapest History Museum and the Hungarian National Gallery here. Nowadays, they hold Buda Castle
District Tours, Festivals, and all sorts of local surprises.
Despite the crowd, check out some of the really scenic spots you can find around the Buda Castle grounds. Plus point for the Asian find: check out the Asian women who were sitting on a tree talking pictures! #Asianselfiepros
