The 10 Best Nature & Parks in Budapest, Central Hungary
Over 15 million gallons of water bubble daily into Budapest's 118 springs and boreholes. The city of spas offers an astounding array of baths, from the sparkling Gellert Baths to the vast 1913 neo-baroque Szechenyi Spa to Rudas Spa, a dramatic 16th-century Turkish pool with original Ottoman architecture. The "Queen of the Danube" is also steeped in history, culture and natural beauty. Get your camera ready for the Roman ruins of the Aquincum Museum, Heroes' Square and Statue Park, and the 300-foot dome of St. Stephen's Basilica.

It is a nice excursion place for the Family. There is a nice path from Normafa to Janoshegy / Elisabeth look-out tower. You could choose concrete or small-pebble road / path. (It is around 2,5 km in the forest. It is not a problem if you have a baby carriage.) There is a nice playground for the babies or kids. You could try the Hungarian "retes" and "langos" fast foods. The forest path is in good condition and clean. The playground is in good condition and clean. The forest and the city panorama view is very nice. There is not so many parking places so better to use the public transport for travelling.

We took a boat tour up and down the river from the Elizabeth Bridge to Margaret Island and back in early evening and very much enjoyed seeing Budapest on both sides of the river from a unique perspective and as night fell.

A wonderful day out. Great for kids and adults. Spotlessly clean , food good and reasonable prices for a pool- very honest staff- we lost a kindle and headphones there through our own fault, and had them returned after several days. In my m=ind much better than the other baths.,

Reviewed By Climber46673760247
We did the English tour which was phenomenal. Our guide was funny, kind, knowledgeable and very outgoing. Since it was an English speaking tour it was a small group so we were able to have closer conversations and ask more questions. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone. There were some steep stairs and cramped quarters but it should be manageable (one of our group was about 6'4" and he managed.)

The monument at the center of the beautiful Heroes square depicts archangel Gabriel holding the Hungarian crown and the cross on top of a tall column. The column stands on a square pedestal surrounded by the leaders of the seven Magyar tribes. Around the monument is a peristyle with statues of Hungarian leaders and the square is surrounded by important historical buildings. Definitely worth a visit.

There is a good visitor centre with lots of information and interactive stuff for kids. It was not expensive to get in. We did the guided tour which happens 1x an hour. The guide was very knowledgable and friendly. The hill is home to different types of lizard, birds, bugs and lots of plants. There are visitor toilets and a few gifts for sale too.
