I visit Budapest often. And most of the time I spend near the Basilica of St. Stephen. Once even lived in a hotel nearby. The basilica is one of the first impressions of a once-novice tourist, but interest in it does not disappear. In addition to viewing the beautiful interiors, there are quite often, it seems, organ music concerts are held 2 times a week. Here I have a flyer with a cost of 450 forints. Be sure to see the shrine with the holy relics of St. Stephen. Be sure to climb the tower and admire the handsome Budapest from a height. From the entrance to the left is the sign of the ascent to the towers. Entry 200 forints. You will walk up a bit. In the lobby in front of the elevator, there are often exhibitions of photos or paintings, which is very informative. And then the elevator and in front of you is Budapest. You can just sit on the benches in front of the Basilica.
There are enough exchange offices, cafes in the area, and on the left corner there is an excellent souvenir shop where you can buy everything from Tokay and foie gras to small magnets. You will not get lost if you walk from the Heroes' Square along Andrá ssy Avenue. It's not that long, but it's very interesting.
