Despite its privileged location in City Park, Vajdahunyad Castle remains a hidden gem in Budapest. This is surprising since it is one of the most beautiful castles in Budapest.
Like most of Budapest's architecture, Vajdahunyad Castle looks like a scene straight out of a fairy tale. Except, you can imagine this one belonging to the villain of the story.
The fusion of Gothic-Renaissance and Baroque architecture creates an almost eerie scene. Ironically, legend says that the castle once imprisoned Count Dracula.
Entry to the grounds of Vajdahunyad Castle is free, so even if you do not wish to go inside, it is worth taking a romantic walk through the courtyards.
Famous for its wild party atmosphere and mind-blowing decor many visitors add the bar to their list of things to do at night. However, to truly appreciate the creativity and extravagance of Szimpla Kert, you should also experience it during the day.
There is nothing not to like about this bar. From its eco-friendly initiatives, cheap drink prices, and extravagant themed decor, walking through Szimpla Kert is like getting lost in a twisted Wonderland.
