Buda, Historic district on western bank of Danube River in Budapest, Hungary

The western section of Budapest sits on elevated terrain connected to Pest through multiple bridges spanning across the Danube River.

Prior to the 1873 unification with Pest, Buda served as a separate medieval royal seat with fortified walls and strategic military positions.

The district contains the Hungarian National Gallery within Buda Castle, displaying extensive collections of Hungarian art from the Middle Ages onward.

Visitors can reach Castle Hill via the funicular railway departing from Clark Adam Square near the Chain Bridge terminus.

The Rudas Bath combines a 16th-century Ottoman dome with modern wellness facilities and a rooftop pool overlooking the Danube.
