Viewed from the embankments of the Danube, Buda forms a collage of palatial buildings, archaic spires and outsize statues, crowning craggy massifs. This glamorous image conceals more mundane aspects, but at times, in the right place, Buda can really live up to it. To experience the Varhegy (Castle Hill) at its best, come early in the morning to visit the museums before the crowds arrive, then wander off for lunch or a soak in one of the Turkish baths, and return to catch street life in full swing in the afternoon. The outlying Buda Hills - accessible by chairlift and the Children's Railway - are obviously less visited during the week, while Gellert-hegy , with its superb views over the city, the Rozsadomb district and the Roman ruins of Obuda and Romai-Furdo can be seen any time, but preferably when the weather's fine.
