Danube Bend
Landscape and history ensemble. As we leave Budapest, we pass by the Roman ruins of Obuda. After one hour of travel we arrive at the medieval town of Visegrad. From on top of the “Hill of the Clouds” you will enjoy a spectacular view of the ruins of the “Castle of Heaven” and the Danube bend.
About 30 minutes later we arrive at the old capital of Hungary, Esztergom, also the center of the Hungarian Christianity. We cross the Danube and arrive in Slovakia, to take advantage of the most beautiful view of Esztergom and Visegrad. We return to the “Hungarian Vatican” and visit the biggest basilica in Hungary. Inside the church of spectacular size and location we will see among other curiosities the Renaissance chapel and the tomb of Cardinal Mindszenty. Lunch in a typical restaurant.
On the way back to Budapest, we stop in Szentendre (St. Andrew’s), where after a walk through the old town you will have some time at leisure and the opportunity to do some shopping.
