About this experience
Together we will stroll through the magical Pest - the flat part of the Hungarian capital on the left bank of the Danube. You will find unusual mini-sculptures, see the famous St. Stephen's Basilica, and admire the grand building of the Parliament! And I will tell you how Budapest was formed, what it lives on today, and share tips from a local resident.
