Kind of a ruin bar right bescide the Chain Bridge, on the Danube sore. Live concerts until 10 pm. Great ambiance. Stunning view. You can approach with the Tram 2 from Margareth Bridge, which is the most beautiful Tram line in Budapest, riding all along the Danube river until the last Souther Bridge.

The famous antique row of Budapest is in Falk Miksa utca, just 10 minutes away from the hostel. It is full of antique shops, art galleries, folk art shops, modern art exhibition places and of course several stylish little cafés with magical ambiance. Falk Miksa utca can also be great for finding unique gifts and souvenirs. The antique row comes alive every spring and fall during Falk Art Forum, a festival celebrating antique and modern art. More than 50 galleries participate the event with special exhibitions and extended opening hours.

The main street of our rivrfront neighbourhood, Újlipótváros. A tree-lined lane of impressive buildings built mainly between the two World Wars. This is one of the most popular residential quarters of the Pest side, with small restaurants, cafés, galleries, and old craftsmen. Nothing shows the district’s solidarity more that residents even have their own “cultural village day” called Pozsonyi Piknik, which is held in every September usually.
