  • Favorite Thing: First..get familiar with the city. On this map Buda is on the left,,Pest is on the right. The upper right corner is City Park.

    Fondest Memory: When i first arrive in an European city I look at the city center...the central park and the metro(more on that next)and I study the Lonely Planet Guide for that country. A good map and a good guide will save you both the price of the guide and extra money...but more importantly...TIME;-)

  • Favorite Thing: Use the Metro...its clean its safe and it will zip you anywhere you want to go.

    Fondest Memory: Fares were on the 'honor system' when i was there..largely due to not understanding the language or the cost of a ride I rode the entire day for free, knowing full well if I were caught there would be a fine...the fine was something like $1US...hehe I took the chance. next time I am there I vow to pay double;-)

     Nice page on a beautiful city, but I think you need to check out your restaurant tip! It must be a rather exclusive restuarant!
