The history of the Buda Castle dates back to the beginning of the 13th century, when King Béla IV had a castle built here. From this time on, the palace was the residence of the Hungarian kings.

Beautiful view, magnificent building ... I definitely recommend coming from the Elisabeth bridge (there are escalators here and, above all, it is a short distance from the Fisherman's Bastion without the unnecessary hill that is promised in the guidebook). If you don't go directly inside, the entrance around the castle is free.
