Budapest is a very beautiful city. A lot of history and beautiful architecture. It reminded us at Praha, although less touristic and with more ‘modern’ buildings in between. You could easily stay here a couple of days for the medical baths and swimming pools in Jugendstill only because there are more than 50 of them! The transition from East to West is almost tangible, and although we enjoyed this city, we didn’t take much time to visit it. We were too tired from travelling and sightseeing. A little decadent, don’t you think? Maybe next time!
