Culture and sights

Hungarian castles were built in different styles and at different times, but the view from all of them is unrivalled and is paired with the exciting history that lies within their walls. Theatre buildings in Budapest are symbols of the immortality of art and music. The National Theatre, located on the bank of the Danube, is an exceptional sight in a beautiful environment. Standing right next to it is MÜPA, where classical and popular music, jazz, world music, dance, new circus and fine arts take centre stage. The Renaissance Revival-style building of the HUNGARIAN STATE OPERA often hosts concerts by national and international stars of the opera world. The National Dance Theatre in Millenáris Park offers visitors a truly unique experience.
