Xploring Budapest Video: Charming Castle District
Budapest’s Castle District is packed with historic sights and attractions - the Royal Palace, the Matthias Church, and many medieval houses - plus charming little streets that follow the shape of the hill and are perfect for a walk even in winter.

Besides the monuments, as you can imagine you get a breathtaking panorama of the Danube that always delights, no matter how many times you go to look at the Chain Bridge and the Pest side of the city.
