Hungarian Parliament Building

The Hungarian Parliament Building is absolutely breathtaking and a must-see when visiting Budapest! As one of the largest and most iconic buildings in Europe, the sheer grandeur and intricate details of the architecture leave you in awe. From the outside, the Neo-Gothic design, with its towering spires and symmetrical layout, looks magnificent from all angles, especially when viewed from the Danube River. The guided tour inside is well worth it. You get to experience the richness of Hungarian history and culture as the guide walks you through the grand halls and chambers, all adorned with stunning frescoes, stained glass windows, and golden accents. The central dome, where Hungary’s Crown Jewels are kept, is an absolute highlight. The atmosphere inside is regal yet inviting, offering a glimpse into the country’s rich political heritage. The location is also great—right on the banks of the Danube, and it’s easy to get to by public transportation. I recommend visiting both during the day and at night when the Parliament is illuminated, creating a magical reflection in the river. Whether you’re a history buff, an architecture lover, or just someone looking for a beautiful experience, the Parliament Building in Budapest is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

The Budapest Parliament Building is an absolute must-see! Its stunning Gothic Revival architecture is breathtaking, both inside and out. The intricate details, grand staircases, and beautiful domes make for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend taking a guided tour to learn more about its history and the impressive artworks inside. The location along the Danube River offers fantastic photo opportunities, especially at sunset. Be sure to add this iconic landmark to your Budapest itinerary!

A must go-to attraction for those visiting Budapest 💯💯 The parliament is largest building in Hungary, the 3 largest parliament in the world! The construction has finished in 1902, the same year as the fisherman’s bastion. It has a very unique design, featuring its large double-dome (the dome is hollow for 30m!). The guide is 45 minutes long, there are guided tours or audio-guided. They have many languages, so I recommend going with the audio guide. Make sure to book 3-4 weeks in advance!! If not, make sure to come as early as 7:30- 7:45 AM to get your same day tickets before selling out ❗️The wait can be long.

A beautiful building is well worth visiting. We only had time to walk the outside, but you can do a tour inside. We noticed the tickets were sold out, and that was about 1330 hours. The best photos are from the river, around 1800 hours.

If there is one place that you must visit while in Budapest, it is the parliament building. The parliament is nothing short of iconic. It defines and dominates the city of Budapest. The building itself is beautiful and should not be missed. Tours of the interior are on offer daily. The visit is free for the citizens of the EU and reasonably priced for all others. Very highly recommended

The view of the Hungarian Parliament from across the Danube is simply stunning, especially in the evening when the building is beautifully illuminated, reflecting on the water. The atmosphere is peaceful and perfect for a relaxing stroll, with people gathering to enjoy the scenery, street performances, and a variety of street food. It’s a chill spot that captures the essence of Budapest, making it an ideal place to unwind and soak in the city’s vibrant yet tranquil vibe.

Very sophisticated design and architecture! In the morning, you will already be amazed by its details and their stories. In the evening, especially on the cruise, the golden and shining structures is just wow, a lot of wow! It looks like a precious treasure location at the side of river, powerful but elegant! You can also reserve the guide inside the parliament for a better understanding of its development and history!!

The tour was informational and the interior amazing. Photos cannot do justice, it’s a must see in person. Such beauty! There is a visitor center to purchase tickets and attend tour. You will need to go through a security check. There is a coat check at no charge. See the original crown of St. Stephan. A top site to experience in Budapest.
