Buda Castle (half day): a World Heritage Site, for me - the most picturesque part of Budapest, both from the Pest side and once you visit the district. Narrow, cobblestone streets, old houses, the amazing Matthias church, museums and gorgeous view of the city. One of the oldest pastry shops, Ruszwurm can also be found there.

Gellért Hill (2 hours): nice for a walk during the day, but I prefer going there after the sunset as the stunning lights of Budapest can be best enjoyed from there. You can visit the fortress of Citadella and see the statue of Lady Liberty.

Walking distance from our place....due to the ongoing reconstruction project, the visit to the City Park is limited right now, still recommended to wander around the lake and the Vajdahunyad vára on the shore of it.
And don't miss the ice-skating rink in the winter!
