Buda Castle seen from Gellért Hill in Budapest, Hungary
If you want a vivid tour through Budapest’s history, make time to see Buda Castle near the banks of the Danube River. What remains of the medieval castle – first built in 1265 – has been incorporated into the many iterations, rebuilds and reconstructions of the royal palace. Representing architectural styles including Baroque, Gothic and Communist-era Modern, Buda Castle itself documents the many changes and upheaval that have shaped Hungary.
