Autumn
Visiting galleries
Autumn is the perfect season and Budapest is the right place for galleries and museum visits: there are countless galleries exhibiting 1100 years of Hungarian artefacts. The National Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, the National Gallery and the Museum of Contemporary Arts is a ‘must see’, but the list is far from being complete.
Head for nature

Budapest, the capital of music and dance
Let it be classical, folk or modern, one can always find a concert or dance performance of high standard in Budapest in every season. The venues themselves also deserve attention – the Opera House, the Palace of Arts, the Academy of Music, the Operetta Theatre serve as worthy offset for a pleasant performance.
Grape harvest festivals, wine tours
Wine is a noble drink and a characteristic element of human culture. Nowadays, like in past times, grape harvest is a festivity so several musical and cultural events take place at the time of vintage. On the other hand, Hungary’s wine regions cover almost the whole territory of the country, facilitating to entwine tourist attractions with wine celebrations.
Sightseeing in town
Budapest is a lively metropolis with rich historical heritage, beautiful sights and lovely ambiance. Beside the ‘must sees’ like the Buda castle, the Fishermen’s Bastion, the Matthias Church, the Parliament, the Heroes’ Square, the Andrássy Lane, the Basilica and the Opera House, there are secret and cosy places one can discover when roaming about the streets of the Capital. The most appropriate seasons for this are the spring and autumn.
