Here are some interesting facts about Budapest

Hungary is one of the oldest countries in Europe. The settlement of the Magyar’s in Hungary dates back to 896. The founding of the State of Hungary was in 1000 (originally known as the Hungarian Kingdom)

Budapest was created when three cities joined together: Óbuda, Buda and Pest. It has the oldest subway-line and is home to the second largest synagogue in the world.

Budapest is big on art and culture there are more than 40 theaters and over 100 museums and galleries in the city. There is a statue here that can make you a great writer. It seems to have some miraculous powers. The legend has it that touching the pen of the Anonymus will bless you with great writing abilities.

Also if you rub the belly of the statue of the policeman in front of the Basilica of San Esteban, you will never put on weight!

Thanks to an abundance of natural hot springs, Hungary can boast around 450 public spas and bathhouses. The most famous of all of the baths is  Széchenyi.
