Budapest District V

Budapest District V extends over 2.59 square kilometers and contains both the historical Inner City and Leopold Town sections of the Hungarian capital.

The district emerged during the 1873 unification of Pest, Buda, and Obuda cities, marking a significant transformation in Budapest's urban development.

The Hungarian Parliament Building and Saint Stephen's Basilica stand as primary architectural monuments within District V, representing Hungarian governance and religious heritage.

The district maintains strong transportation connections through multiple metro lines, tram routes, and bus services that link different sections of Budapest.

District V houses both the Hungarian National Bank and the Budapest Stock Exchange, establishing itself as the financial center of Hungary.
