Cultural heritage

Avoid the popular spas, try the hidden gem, Veli Bej!

Take a walk around the freshly built MOME Modern Art University campus, visit Városliget until you can… In winter, the graveyard on Fiumei út is especially romantic, just as much as Kiscelli museum. Don’t hesitate to skate at Városligeti Műjégpálya!
