My trip to Budapest was in the beginning of July of 2019 yet I still didn’t had the time to stop and write about it.
The trip started with me traveling with an airline I never travelled before and surprised me, Wizzair (no, this post is not sponsored but if the company want to offer me a flight, I will accept). Overall I enjoyed it and definitely will travel with Wizzair again.

Wizzair flight from Lisbon to Budapest in beginning of the night and arrived very late in the evening, so I will advice to book a transfer in advance.

I reserved my room at Connection GuestHouse, which is near the historic center and near Kadarka Wine Bar, a place I’ve eaten once and the chef made a special dish gluten free for me, super friendly staff and also near Cat Cafe. If you like cats, please visit this coffee shop in Budapest, full of amazing cats.

Budapest is divided into two parts, Buda and Pest, both different and gorgeous with different personalities. The side of Buda and its hill to the Castle and Citadel are surrounded by Hot Springs, viewpoints and even a cavern.

Pest and the Parliament side, have a jovial personality, with typical neighbourhoods, narrow streets, churches and museums.
During one of my days in Budapest, I spent a few hours in a Hot Spring named Rudas Bath, where I was literally lied down in the water, hot water. Accordingly to what they say, those waters are good for the bones, muscles and prevent illness.
Budapest has several Hot Springs around the city, some centenary. Worth a visit!

At Citadel, after the bus stop, you will find a serie of souvenirs stools and local artists. Support local artists and buy art, I got a handmade souvenir and a watercolour painting.
I like to think I may help other artists as I’m also an artist and it’s great and people buy my stuff.
In the viewpoint, next to the Liberty Statue you will see the all city, gorgeous.
