View is amazing. Be careful for the gambling . There is a guy that keep inviting u to play the ‘find the ball’ and u supposed to earn but his hand is so quick that can make u loose ur money.

We Love Budapest

The Citadel is a fortress atop Gellért Hill in the 11th District of Budapest. It was constructed by the Hapsburg Empire in 1854, following the suppression of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848. Read more

One of the most famous viewpoints in Budapest .. Breathtaking, Unique and Panoramic view of the city .. Go before sunset !!

Chris Giapitzis-Papandreou

The best view of Budapest from above. Don't miss it. It's actually not that far away

Effie

From Erszebet hid (bridge ) through the stairs always use the left from all choices. It takes you to the top of the citadela. It is in restauration from at least in 2023.

Amit Gaharwar

Great views of the city . The three statues are quite striking. A short hike on Gellert Hill .

Svetlana Mayday

Wonderful spot for taking photos and walk around! Stunning view ! Even nicer than Montmartre in Paris????

Chris R (thechristophe)

Great views from the top of the city next to the river . A precarious climb at night time, bring a torch/flashlight!

Carl Griffin

Fortress built by the Habsburgs in 1851 but never saw any action. Excellent views across the city .

Dragan

Great view not far from city center. Highly recommended to take a walk here

Alex Pyatetsky

Really nice Sunday walk/hike. Definitely a challenge going up, but lots of experiences to be had depending on the path you take. Also, mountain-side parks good for picnics .

Katja M.

Top of Budapest. There are few tents aside with hot mulled wine (useful in winter seasons ).

Alex

Check gallery of Budapest old photographs on citadella wall and then go down to church . Dont miss nice views to the bridge from several viewpoints on the way down. Always try to turn left and down.

Rene T.

Was unfortunately completely renovated during our visit (July 2023) and was not accessible. Nevertheless, the climb was worth it just for the great view .

I just can't get bored of it, no matter how many decades I'm living next to it. To most beautiful view on the planet.

Fantastic views of the city

Nicole

15-20 min walk from the liberty bridge .... So worth it. Do it!!

Elodie Julie

Buda Side is more industrial and Pest is so beautiful with it's magnificent architecture . Must do in Budapest !

Nicole

The walk from liberty bridge is only ~15m tho it is steep- it is SOOOO worth it.

James Heiberg

It's a shame the wax museum in the bunker is so cheesy because there is actually some very good information about Budapest during the war in there.

It's a breathtaking view from the top of the Gellert Hill ! The Unesco thinks the same and listed the view of Budapest in its World Heritage Sites.

Fedor Muhosranskiy

Great view on a city , nice observing point

Debbra Rogers

They don’t do the beef cheek by itself anymore - only in a boglanese. The brisket is done just like the beef cheeks was done.

Nantia Modsy

I would rate with a heart, but we lost money on a game “find the rock” so bad memories
