Top 10 Fountains 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.

We literally stumbled across this very lovely sculpture/water fountain in passing on our way to the Royal Palace. Depicting the young King Matthias hunting with his dogs, it is striking and lovely to spend a few moments in front of.

Highlight of our third day in Budapest. Fabulous waterworks with a large fountain shooting jets of water some 30 feet into the air and many smaller fountains forming intricate patterns. Other jets fire spurts of water with a cracking sound, which caused the pigeons to panic. This great water show is accompanied by music - predominantly Strauss at the time of our visit. We had wandered the island from end to end, and were rather disappointed, until we came across this magnificent fountain. We spent an enjoyable hour listening to the music and watching the fantastic waterworks programme. Well worth visiting this island just for this brilliant fountain!
