We can\u2019t wait to welcome you to Budapest for the UNI Care World Conference. The vibrant capital of Hungary offers a rich cultural experience and an array of unique activities to explore the city. Here are three ideas to get you started…<\/p>\r\n

1. Relax in the iconic thermal baths<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n

Budapest is renowned for its thermal baths. The city sits atop numerous natural hot springs, which have been utilized for therapeutic purposes for centuries. The most famous of these is the Sz\u00e9chenyi Thermal Bath<\/a>, located in the picturesque City Park. With its neo-baroque architecture, outdoor pools and steam rooms, Sz\u00e9chenyi offers a perfect blend of relaxation and history. You can soak in warm mineral-rich waters that are said to have healing properties, all while enjoying the stunning surroundings.<\/p>\r\n

For a more intimate experience, consider the Gell\u00e9rt Baths<\/a>, known for their Art Nouveau design and mosaic-tiled pools. Whether you choose Sz\u00e9chenyi, Gell\u00e9rt, or another of Budapest\u2019s renowned spas, you\u2019ll leave feeling rejuvenated!<\/p>\r\n

2. Explore the Buda Castle and Fisherman’s Bastion<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n

The historic Buda Castle complex offers panoramic views of the city, the Danube River, and the iconic Chain Bridge. You can explore the castle grounds, visit the Budapest History Museum, and the Hungarian National Gallery housed within the castle. A short walk from Buda Castle, the Fisherman’s Bastion and its neo-Gothic terrace provides some of the best views of Budapest, particularly of the Parliament building across the river. The Bastion’s fairy-tale-like towers and turrets make it a must-see spot for photographers.<\/p>\r\n

3. Dive into local culture at the Great Market Hall<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n

For those who want to experience Budapest like a local, a visit to the Great Market Hall <\/a>(Nagyv\u00e1s\u00e1rcsarnok) is essential. Located at the end of V\u00e1ci Street, this massive indoor market is a feast for the senses. Built in the late 19th century, the market is a vibrant hub where you can find everything from fresh produce to traditional Hungarian crafts.<\/p>\r\n

Stroll through the bustling aisles filled with colourful fruits, vegetables, spices and meats. Don’t miss the opportunity to try some traditional Hungarian dishes at the market’s food stalls. Langos, a deep-fried dough topped with sour cream and cheese, or a bowl of hearty goulash will give you a taste of Hungary’s rich culinary heritage. Upstairs, you’ll find a variety of handicrafts, souvenirs and textiles – perfect for picking up a unique memento of your visit. N.B. The market is closed on Sundays.<\/p>\r\n
