Top Ten Things to do in Budapest.

10. Finally, visit Andrássy Avenue and relax at the Andrassy Merse Apt

Andrássy Út – Champs-Élysées of Budapest, recognized as a World Heritage Site, was built to connect the city center with City Park (Városliget). Construction began in 1872, and the avenue was inaugurated in 1885. Its Eclectic Neo-Renaissance palaces and houses were built by the most distinguished architects of the time. Aristocrats, bankers, landowners and noble families moved in. The iconic avenue was named after Prime Minister Gyula Andrássy, a key advocate of the project.

At the time of its completion in 1885, Andrássy Avenue was considered a masterpiece of city planning and even public transport was prohibited to preserve its character. This brought about the idea to build a railroad beneath it. The Millennium Underground Railway, the first subway line in continental Europe, opened in 1896. The line transported people from the city center to Városliget, the main venue of the Millennium celebrations.

Top Ten Things to do in Budapest.

09. Visit St. Stephen's Basilica

One of Budapest's greatest landmarks is this beautiful, neo-renaissance style based church which stands on the Pest side of the city. The church construction was completed in 1906. having taken 50 years to build. The inauguration ceremony was attended by Emperor Franz Joseph.

St. Stephen’s Basilica is the largest church in Budapest and can hold up to 8,500 people. Although in architectural terms it’s a cathedral, it was given the title of ‘basilica minor’ by Pope Pius XI in 1931. During its construction, in 1868 the dome collapsed and rebuilding it had to start almost from scratch, which explains the delay in the Basilica's completion. Architect Jozsef Hild who drafted the original plans and supervised the construction died in 1867. when Miklós Ybl, one of Europe's leading architects in the mid to late 19th century, who also designed the Opera House, took over. The dome is 96 meters high, the exact same height as the Budapest Parliament Building. In fact current building regulations stipulate that no other structure in Budapest can be taller than 96 meters. Having the same height as the Parliament also symbolizes the balance between church and state in Hungary.

The Parliament building, a magnificent example of Neo-Gothic architecture (although displaying Renaissance and Baroque characters too), is just over 100 years old. Construction based on the winning plan began in 1885. and fully completed in 1902. The Budapest Parliament building is the third largest Parliament building in the world. It has 691 rooms, 20 kilometers (12,5 miles) of stairs and at 96 meters (315 feet). The Parliament is home to the Holy Crown, the royal sceptre, and the globus cruciger of the first kings of Hungary.
