Matthias ChurchOur first stop is the iconic Matthias Church, which we will visit from the inside as well in order to get to know it a little bit better and see what it has in store for us.
Fisherman's BastionOur second stop is the enchanting Fisherman's Bastion, which seems to have come out of a fairly tale and offers some of the most spectacular views of the city.
Pass by
We will pass by one of the most peculiar buildings of the Castle District: the brutalist Hilton Hotel.
Karmelita KolostorPass by
The former Carmelite monastery functioned as the office of the prime-ministry until the 2026 elections. We will be passing by this one as well.
Sandor PalacePass by
The Sandor (Alexandrine) Palace has been the seat of the president of Hungary for over 2 decades now. If we arrive at a set time, we might even catch the changing of the guard.
Buda Hill FunicularAdmission not included15 min
One of our most unique means of transportation and the quickest way to enter the Castle District, the Buda Castle Funicular has been in use for over 150 years now. We will stop by the upper station, but not use the funicular.
Buda CastleAdmission not included20 min
While the title "castle" is misleading, this defines the entire district on the mountain and not just a singular building. We will stop around the Royal Palace in several places, but will not enter it. The royal palace houses 3 museums and neither of them operate as a palace museum, so there is nothing to see inside from the royal age.
Fountain of King Matthias15 min
The most impressive historical fountain of the city features one of the most important kings of the country: Matthias. This will be our last stop.
