You are heading to Budapest, capital of Hungary and one of the most beautiful Eastern European cities and you are excited to explore…You know that there is so much to see and do, but there is the catch — you only have 2 days at your disposal. What do you do in Budapest in 2 days?
Well, you can organise your time well so that you fit in the main sites without overdoing it, so be sure to include a couple of relaxing lunches and a thermal spa trip! As Budapest is split into two parts on either side of the river Danube, it makes sense to focus predominantly on Buda on Day 1 and Pest on Day 2. Budapest is one of my favourite European cities and extremely popular with digital nomads. Here’s what to do in Budapest in 2 days.
What to do in Budapest in 2 Days — Day 1
1. Walk on Széchenyi Chain Bridge
Starting from Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace, start crossing the Széchenyi Chain Bridge. Budapest is split by the river Danube in two halves: Buda and Pesta. The two halves are connected through several bridges, many of them of high architectural and historical interest. Széchenyi Chain Bridge is one of those bridges. With a length of 375 meters, the Chain Bridge was considered to be one of the wonders of he world at the time of its construction, in 1849.
