VISIT OF HUNGARY’S PARLIAMENT BUILDING AND THE HUNGARIAN CROWN JEWELS

The Parliament of Hungary is the world’s third largest Parliament building. The Parliament building, a magnificent example of Neo-Gothic architecture (although displaying Renaissance and Baroque characters too), is just over 100 years old. In the 1880’s an open tender was held for the design of the Parliament building. Construction based on the winning plan began in 1885 and the building was inaugurated on the 1000th anniversary of Hungary in 1896, and fully completed in 1902. Guided tours of the Parliament are available when the National Assembly is not in session. The tour takes about 45 minutes.

VISIT OF GREAT MARKET HALL

The Great Market Hall (Nagycsarnok) built in 1897 is the most beautiful of all Budapest market halls. And the market is not only ‘Great’ in its size, but is also great in other aspects. Most importantly the market is also central, no wonder it is also called the Central Market Hall, for both of its location (5 min walk from the city center), and the volume of trade taking place here on a daily basis.

If you love fresh goods, people watching, shopping, or just sightseeing in amazing places, we trust you will love the Great Market Hall. No matter if it shines or rains, the Great Market Hall is a great option, and definitely one of the top Budapest attractions.

PERFORMANCE AT THE WORLD FAMOUS BUDAPEST OPERA HOUSE

The opera house in Budapest stands as one of the most beautiful Neo-Renaissance buildings in Europe. When it was opened in 1884, the city shared the administrative duties of the Austro-Hungarian Empire with Vienna. In fact, Emperor Franz Joseph commissioned its design. The Budapest Opera House is considered to be amongst the best opera houses in the world in terms of its acoustics, and has an auditorium that seats 1200 people. It is horseshoe-shaped and, according to measurements done by a group of international engineers, has the third best acoustics amongst similar European venues (after the Scala in Milan and the Paris Opera House).

There is a performance every day all year round in the Opera House and the programme is very interesting.
