Hungarian National Gallery

📍 I. District, Buda Castle, Wing B–D

Lunch at Gerbeaud Cukrászda

📍 V. District, Vörösmarty tér 7
Why here: Opened in 1858 — the pastries are iconic and the terrace overlooks the city's most elegant square.

Terror House Museum

📍 VI. District, Andrássy út 60

Evening concert at Budapest Opera House

📍 VI. District, Andrássy út 22
