Around the corner

Landmark

Fő tér

The main square of old Óbuda, a separate town until 1873, with baroque houses and old-style restaurants. Round the corner, Imre Varga's bronze women with umbrellas wait in the street. Skip it if you're short on time; it's a square to cross, not to stay in.

Experience

Lukacs Baths

A thermal bath on the Buda bank, with indoor and outdoor pools and a mostly local crowd. It's calmer and plainer than Széchenyi, and in winter the outdoor pools steam. Skip it if you came for the famous yellow building; this one is about the water. Open to ages 14 and up.

Landmark

Margaret Island Water Tower

An Art Nouveau water tower from 1911 in the middle of Margaret Island, with exhibitions inside and a lookout at the top in the warmer months. Skip the climb in winter; check it's open before you plan on it.

Landmark

Árpád Bridge

A long, plain bridge from Óbuda across the river, with stairs down to the north end of Margaret Island. It's a crossing, not a sight. Skip it on a windy day and take the bus to the island.

Park & Garden

Rose Garden

A large rose garden in the middle of Margaret Island, with beds of hundreds of varieties around a lawn. It's at its best from late May into autumn. Skip it from November to April; the beds are bare.

Museum

Hungarian Museum of Commerce and Hospitality

A museum of how Budapest shopped and ate out, on Korona tér: old shop signs, packaging, and the stories of the city's hotels, cafés and confectioners. Closed on Mondays. Skip it if old ads and brands don't charm you.
