    I agree with other VT travelers that City looks even better under lights. The lights illuminate the city with a incredible glow. I walk with my friends all over Peshta and dint feel unsafe don't even second.

    There is many hidden cool places, but certainly I could not find them if I have not got the locals. I sincerely just can advise Budapest Pubs. The some of the touristic ones are expensive and not that good - not my style, shame - but in the 5th 6th 7th 8th districts you can find a lot good, underground, art places... Budapest is full of tourist at the moment, but If you spend a bit to find the local services Iam sure you will have been a right spots.

    Hungarian & Gypsy music & dance concert

    Duna Palota
    1 more image

    My wife and I enjoyed a folk music & dance concert by the Rajko Folk Ensemble which included a Brahms Hungarian Dance and Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No 2. The concert was excellent and performed in a magnificent theatre, the Duna Palota (Danube Palace). The building was built between 1883 and 1885 in Neo-Baroque style. The Rajko alternate with other orchestras. The theatre building is worth going to for the magnificent, if slightly over the top decor.

    Even Better at Night

    by cjg1 Updated Dec 31, 2008 5055 reviews

    4.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Budapest is a wonderful city by day but even better at night. The lights illuminate the city with a beautiful glow. We walked from the Buda side across the chain bridge to Pest. It was a great walk and the bridge looked phenomenal.

    Budapest is very beautiful during the day and also very beautiful during the evening and night.

    There are a lot of restaurants , beautiful views of the Danube area (parliament , buda castle) lighted.
    You must walk in the Danube promenade and see the beautiful views of the buildings around.

    Illuminated Budapest

    Royal Palace

    Budapest illumniated at night was quite breathtaking. The "Chain Bridge, Parliment, Royal Palace can be seen along the banks of the Danube and some really excellent pics can be taken from any part of the city.

    A city does transform itself at night, and Budapest was for me a really good example of this. Many of the buildings look so much better when they are illumniated.

    Budapest in the night

    I love the Budapest in the night. Light, Danube, Buda Castle, Chain Bridge,.... Love it. For a city of its size, Budapest has a huge choice of things to do and places to go after dark - from opera and folk dancing to jazz and meat-market clubs. It's almost never difficult getting tickets or getting in; the hard part is deciding what to do.

    Budapest has a great nightlife - loads of places to go chill out. At hostels you get various cards which you can use to get discounts on. I happened to go to a couple of places - one was the Jazz garden - for Jazz fans. Good music and great food. Another one is Fatál - hungarian for "wooden plate" - great food - the quantities are quite large. There's plenty to do - just walk around.

    Budapest At Night

    The monuments of Budapest are beautifully lit at night but as they are so widely spread, unless you have a car I would recommend taking one of the tours on offer. My hotel booked one for me and I was particularly lucky because it turned out I was the only person on it that night... so I was whisked all over Budapest in a little minibus, sitting up front with the driver who acted like my personal guide. He was very friendly, spoke extremely good English and had a great sense of humour so it was an enjoyable evening. The other advantage of doing this is that a local guide can give you additional snippets of information that your guidebook might have missed.
