Buda Castle on Postcard

"The Buda Castle is probably the greatest tourist attraction in Budapest, which means you can hardly be alone there. But believe us! You don’t want to miss it! Every street, every corner and every house surprises you and takes you to another world. Try to go off the beaten track, follow your instincts and be absorbed by the beauty of the area!" - Barbara Majsa

On the Grid : Buda Castle

"This stunning 18th-century Baroque palace, a World Heritage Site perched on Castle Hill, evokes images of Hungarian kings and the mighty Hapsburg empire. Accessible via funicular or a steep walk, the castle's gardens, squares, and lavish interiors can be taken in on a guided tour or a relaxed afternoon on your own. Various portions of the palace were added in later centuries, offering a cornucopia of architectural and historical sights. The castle's omnipresence (its height makes it visible from many corners of the city) offers orientation and grounding for tourists and locals alike."

Another crowded place. Be prepared. You can take a tram if you don’t feel like walking. Highly recommended if you have kids or seniors with you. A nice place to walk around. It’s an area, not just a castle.

An amazing place (I recommend when it’s dark) You can go on a free tour and it’s really interesting and you can see a lot of the building Right Now, there a part under reparation, but definitely worth it. One of the best and most impressive Buildings in Budapest.

Visiting Buda Castle was a truly remarkable experience. This historical site offers a captivating blend of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architectural styles, making it a visual feast for architecture enthusiasts. As a fortified castle, it holds immense historical significance and provides a glimpse into Budapest’s rich cultural heritage. Exploring the castle requires both time and attention, as there are numerous sections and details to appreciate fully. From the stunning views of the Danube to the intricate design elements within its walls, every corner has something unique to offer. I highly recommend setting aside several hours to fully immerse yourself in this experience. Whether you’re a history buff, an architecture lover, or simply looking for a scenic walk, Buda Castle is a must-see destination for anyone visiting Budapest.

The castle was absolutely spectacular! Exploring Budapest's rich history and witnessing how the city has risen from adversity to reclaim its proud heritage was fascinating. Even on a rainy day, the castle grounds and breathtaking views left us in awe! The beautiful water fountain was a delightful bonus. This experience is a must-see for every visitor—truly a highlight of our trip!

We went on a bus tour around castle. Worth it. Don't waste time walking around and it's hop on hop off wherever you want. The ticket is for the whole day. Excellent choice for us. Got to go inside Sandor Palace. Open only for 2 days for Cultural Heritage Day. Lucky us.

It's a nice place from which to see most of downtown. Wear durable shoes though, it's a lot of walking and climbing. The view is absolutely stunning and definitely worth the climb. There's a bar thingy around where you can get water and snacks. Very nice location for pictures as well.

The Castle was a marvel to watch, such a magnificent design of the past. Loved the pavements around the castle which makes easier for tourists to roam around. Definitely a 5 star recommendation for all tourists.
