Area Budapest
Hungarian capital
Budapest is the capital of Hungary and has two million inhabitants. Until 1873 was Budapest divided into three separate cities – Buda, Old Buda on the right bank of the Danube and Pest on the left bank. Both banks have nothing in common at first glance. Bank Buda is hilly and rippling, left Pest is flat. Contrast of both sides is linked by the Danube and completes the beautiful scenery. Danube makes its way between the two parts and flows around some beautiful green islands, which host festivals, people relax here, play sports and have fun.
