Favorite Places to Kill an Hour

Central Hall Market: Not only a good place to pick up souvenirs, but also a fun place for people-watching. The second floor balcony overlooking the whole market is an experience you should not miss.

Castle Hill: Ignore the tourist sights for an hour and just stroll along the side streets, winding around and allowing yourself to get lost in admiring the buildings.

The Baths: The Kiraly or Rudas baths are steeped in history and are the perfect way to relax while soaking in the history of the culture at the same time.

A Traditional Coffeehouse: Coffeehouses are a cultural icon in the city, dating back over a 100 years. Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and linger with a book or newspaper for as long as you like without feeling any pressure to leave.

Browse the Shelves in a Bookstore: With three used English bookstores, there are many opportunities to find something that will catch your eye. Perhaps you will find that special book as a remembrance of your visit.

Art Factory Gallery and Studio: Open to the public and located in the ABB Building at Vaci ut 152-156, it is small enough to enjoy for an hour or longer if you have the time.
