What is classicism or modern architecture for other cities, that is eclectic style for Budapest. Undoubtedly, this style fits the city best – a bit of this, a bit of that, an idea from here and an example from there. A mixture and a variety, just like the population of the capital – a colourful medley of Germans, Turks, Slovaks, Jews and Hungarians.

The turn of the 19th and 20th centuries experienced the peak of bourgeois development and modernisation in Budapest. Following west European patterns, the aristocracy and the upper middle classes had wonderful Classicist, Eclectic and Art Nouveau mansions and villas constructed. The spectacle of buildings flanking the city centre’s main axis, Andrássy Avenue, reflects that era.

There are several magnificent public and listed buildings in Budapest’s city centre. And there are even more hidden treasures: entrances where carriages could enter, outside corridors in the courtyards of apartment blocks with through passages, shops preserving their century-old beauty, squares and cafés recalling a Parisian atmosphere, a market echoing a genuine Balkan milieu, Art Nouveau mansions.

Budapest is the queen of the Danube. She would not exist without the river. The Danube has defined and pampered the city for a thousand years. The meeting of the river and the city is nowhere as intensive, tragic and beautiful as in the Pest city centre. Memories of nearly all the milestones of Hungarian history are condensed here.

Once upon a time there was a Jewish Budapest inhabited by more than two hundred thousand in its heyday. Many of them lived in a geographically well-defined area still referred to as the Jewish quarter.

Once upon a time there were the 1950s, 60s and 70s. Socialism, the happiest barrack, party congresses, politics, the victorious working class and ‘Stalin Baroque’. At the same time there was a parallel world – bakelite records, mini skirts, neon advertising, soda-water, the new Bauhaus – in other words, Budapest retro.
