The Hungarian Parliament Building is one of those iconic sights that you can’t miss when strolling along the Danube. With its stunning Neo-Gothic architecture and spires reaching for the sky, it's an absolute showstopper—perfect for those "wow" photos. Honestly, this is one of those landmarks that looks just as good from the outside as it does inside (and without the ticket!).

As you walk past, snap some pics from the Danube Promenade or head over to Kossuth Lajos Square for a closer view. And if you really want that postcard-worthy shot? Cross the river to the Buda side—it’s even more breathtaking from there. Just a quick walk-by and photo op will do, but trust me, those photos will be some of your favorites from Budapest!

If you wanna go inside you can get a 45 minute tour for 18€
