Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is a vibrant metropolis with about 1.7 million inhabitants. From its founding in 896 A.D. the area was originally three cities separated by the Danube River; Pest to the west, Buda to the east, and Óbuda to the North. In 1873 A.D., these three cities united to create the Hungarian capital of Budapest. During its history, Budapest has been captured by Tatars and Turks, was subsequently occupied by the multinational troops of the Holy Roman Empire, and later by Austrians, Germans and most recently the Russians from 1949-1991. Considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, Budapest also has 80 geothermal springs, the world's largest thermal water cave system, second largest synagogue, third largest Parliament building and the second oldest metro line in the world, the Millennium Underground Railway. Your day in Budapest will include these fascinating sites located on the east bank (Buda) and the west bank (Pest).
