About the District I Area
Historic, romantic, upscale, and panoramic
District I, or Várnegyed, is Budapest's crown jewel. It sits high on a limestone plateau on the Buda side, overlooking the Danube with a sense of royal authority. By day, it’s the city’s historical heavy hitter. You'll find tour groups swarming the Royal Palace and snapping selfies at Fisherman’s Bastion. But stay until the buses leave.
