Budapest is the most beautiful city I’ve ever seen. There is so much to see. The people are very frendly. You have to try the food there, it’s so delicious. It’s very important that you see Budapest at night. The whole city is shining.

It's a place safe but the vibe of the city is strange and the fine for don't have the ticket train is expensive so better get one before you get on. Also the disco there are so good because all the discos have diferent floors with different music.

We come to Budapest every year to visit family ☀️☀️☀️ This city is wonderful, there are many activities to partake in and museums to visit 🖼 The cultural history is very present as well, especially during the "mesterségek ünnepe", where you can witness handcrafted exhibitions of Hungary’s identity 💗 I absolutely adore the architecture that is fun, colourful and elegant 🍒 Although vegan 🌱 and vegetarian food aren’t really staples in Hungarian cuisine, Budapest is a place where you can be...

Very pretty city. Even tho i was there with my bf i would feel safe also alone. Strudels are really delicious here 😋. Everything is near and night life is living indeed but finding free restaurant for dinner is a challenge😵💫

You can walk by yourself, the worst thing that could happen that a drunk young group will say how beautiful you are😅 You don’t need to extra protect your belongings, but if you leave them somewhere it might diaappear in 10 mins

I went to bars and parties a lot in Budapest and as I lived on the buda side, i had to walk a lot at night. I never felt unsafe even in the public transportation no matter what I was wearing :).

Usually it is safe, there are a few places where you can find weird and scary people, but most of the places are good. public transportation is also very safe, use BudapestGo it helps at day and night which bus takes you quicker to home.
