Vajdahunyad Castle

Despite its privileged position in City Park, Vajdahunyad Castle remains a hidden gem in Budapest. This is surprising as it is one of the most beautiful castles in Budapest.

Like most of Budapest's architecture, Vajdanhunyad Castle looks like a scene out of a fairy tale. Alone, 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 has it that the castle once imprisoned Count Dracula.

Entrance to the grounds of Vajdahunyad Castle is free, so even if you do not wish to enter, it is worth a romantic stroll through the courtyards.
