Amazing building during the day, impressive to watch during the night, the tallest building in Budapest . Many parts of it’s interior are made with gold, here you´ll find the Hungarian crown

Artyom Fedosov

The most beautiful government building I've ever seen. Made in neogothic style, it looks stunning both day and night time. But admission fee is frustrating: 20 € (non-EU) for 30 min with a group tour .

Top notch building in Hungary, a neo-gothic palace with neo-Renaissance dome. Built for the 1000 yr anniversary of the Hungarians in 1896 (but finished in 1902). Best views at sunset across the Danube

Nikka

Architectonical monument of whole Budapest- it's so huge that you can see its part quite from all parts of the city .Below it's a riverwalk path,from which you can take snaps of it,especially at night.

Amit Gaharwar

One of the most prominent buildings on Budapest circuit. You will see it from every major site you visit in Budapest. In the night the illumonations are great. Best views from opposite bank .

Chris Giapitzis-Papandreou

Beautiful building , day and night. Not sure if the indoor tour is actually worth it but in any case it's not expensive so go for it if you are a politics/history "junkie"

Darleny Lopez

Amazing building. Impressive, beautiful a work of fine art . This is the best building in the city . Love it

Ariana Voyer

To view the beautiful architecture and enjoy the setting, try going on a Sunday morning. I went around 10:30 and hardly any tourists had arrived yet. Lovely!

Ravneet Mavi

Beautiful building on the river , surrounded by beautifully landscaped public space. A cute little yellow tram#2, keeps running along side it. Make sure to visit it after sunset as well .

Maryam Sheikhlou

It’s a so beautiful and building next to the Danube river . You can see it from the top of the Buda castle and at night, it has a wonderful reflection on the river .

Stoian Anastasia

You should try the guided tour (it is pretty interesting and it has a low price). I also recommend the Danube cruise at night so you can see the amazing architecture also by night :)

Kyze

The most amazing building in Budapest . The visit is short but worth it for the low price. Buy the ticket in advance, they sell out. You won't miss much if you take the tour in another language.

Jennifer Hardi

Gorgeous place inside out! Must definitely go for the tour inside the building. Very grandeur architecture

Juanxito Gómez

Huge and amazing parliament. The architecture is awesome. At night is also amazing.

Joanne Wright

An absolutely amazing building the detail is outstanding. Get off the tube on the opposite side of the river for a great photo. Or go on a night river cruise .

Max Stolk

Make a reservation online and of you are joining the last tour (6pm), you do not have more than 10 minutes in the last room where you have "as long as you want". It is a quick and enjoyable tour .

Klára Kančiová

Amazing building. It is possible to have guided tour inside, but it is better to make reservation online at least day before. Enjoy !

Marina Aleksic

Amazing architecture , beautiful design. Its even more beautiful at night. Make sure to take a walk in front by the river .

Xinacu IBZ

Must see at Night, and if you can book before so you can avoid the queue better, if not you should go at afternoon and try to catch a tour (no queue but could be not a Tour in your lenguage)

Alk Reyna 👸🏻

Very nice worth the visit, not only outside but inside.

Thomas Craenen

Definitely worth having a look inside although the ticket price is rather high for the value of the tour . Be sure to arrive 5 minutes in advance.

Lena Bantovskaya

One of the most beautiful buildings in Europe! The most beautiful parliament in Europe for sure!!!

The Ritz-Carlton

The over 100 year old Parliament building is the third largest legislative building in the world. It stretches between Chain Bridge and Margaret Bridge on the Pest bank of the Danube .

Anna Tkachenko

Oh my God! It’s the best building I’ve ever seen! Wow wow wow!

Carl Griffin

Stunning cathedral like structure dominating the Pest riverbank. Tours are available in 8 different languages.

Olena Kaun

From time to time there's guard change ceremony outside of the parliament, but it's too much theatrical.The real guard change takes place inside in the Dome Chamber where the King's crown is excibited

Jessica Artus

Super beautiful. Wish there was unguided tours but I can see why there's not. Also wish we could see the Crown Jewels better but they were pretty far away and blocked off.

Bora Kayasu

Stunning architecture ! Definitely worth to buy a tour inside.. Must seen from Buda side at night too with night lightning.

Kristina Mutalapova

Go to Batthyány tér metro station to enjoy its beauty

Inti Kos

Breathtaking! Must see if you visit Budapest!

Taylor Moll

Be sure to go during the daytime and the night. The architecture is well worth the trip twice!

Kasia Koczułap

Beautiful building , also by night. Go inside (buy ticket on Internet), worth to see.

Victoria S ⚅

An incredible building and one of the biggest in Europe.The view from Buda side is spectacular.Visit it the day and the night.

Georgina H

Make sure you get to the ticket office (in the opposite museum )early. The wait can take 1hour+, even at 9am! Take Identity documents too, or risk being refused. Discount for UK citizens (50% off).

Jan Vymětal

Don't wait in long line for newly discovered roman treasure like we did (even it is for free), buy ticket for guided tour in Museum of Ethnography opposite the parliament. No knifes, pepper sprays...

Ele Gagnidze 유

It is totally worth visiting. Very beautiful interior as well as the exterior.

Stunning building,definitelly worth visiting.Though the tour is 40 mins long, pricy for non-EU citizens, guide's English is not good,but still it's very interesting to see the building from the inside

Walk along at night - plenty of seats along the river to turn round and see the views .

David Iwanow
