LET'S INTRODUCE DISTRICT V. - DOWNTOWN
One of the smallest in size but a significant one, District V. is at the heart of the city, true downtown of Pest. It’s an elegant area with gorgeous boulevards and pretty squares and home to many of Budapest’s main attractions. The district is home to the beautiful neo-gothic Parliament building and St Stephen’s Basilica along with many restaurants and cafés and five star hotels.
