The Bathhouses. First of all Budapest is famous for its bathhouses. The most famous and attractive of them is surely the Gellert Bathhouse with more than 70 million liters of water that flow out of 118 springs. There you'll find various pools (both inside and outside), saunas, you can also have massage, pedicure and manicure. The floor of the bathhouse is decorated with mosaic. They say that the water there can cure many diseases. If you forgot to take a swimming costume with you, never mind – you can always hire it there.

St. Istvan Basilica. St Istvan Basilica is the biggest church in Budapest, which was built in honor of the 1st king of Hungary – Istvan. The building work started in 1851 and lasted for 50 years. When in 1868 the cupola collapsed, the works had to be started from the beginning. In 1905 the church was finally ready and the result was really tremendous. The building was fabulous not only inside, but also outside. Famous sculptors and artists of those times took part in its decorating. The Basilica is located in front of the Parliament Building and has a wonderful view on Andrassy Avenue.
