The Budapest Castle complex of buildings is on the west side of the Danube and perched up on Castle Hill overlooking the Danube. From the Pest side, you can stroll across the Chain Bridge, and then you can take the funicular railway 2 min ride, or walk up the hill.
A marvellous palace of impressive size, The Royal Palace in Budapest almost faces the Parliament Buildings across the Danube River. It houses several museums.

Nothing like standing on the banks of the Danube watching the ice flow with the current.
Great people, get about and meet them. Go to a Russian restuarant and drink ice cold vodka - cant remember much else!

specially nice is walk around it and see it from the other bank of the river, despite of the weather!!
From the parliament is nice to walk up to Margaret island 300m further away or just sit in any bech over the road running side by side to the river bank ..specially at sunset !

The external facade is made by Mészáros and Gerstenberger and the architectural style of the building is neobaroque. The murals on the walls of the theatre were painted by Lajos Márk. Since its opening the Casino has excelled at patronising the arts: exhibitions and concerts have been held here, it has financed opera performances and it has also organised competitions. A great many famous people have given performances in the Casino such as Béla Bartók, Zoltán Kodály, Mark Twain and Antonin Dvorak.
