Must do in Budapest: the only attraction of this type in Europe – The “Sparty” (for “Spa-parties”) at the Szechenyi thermal baths! The old, atmospheric thermal pools turn into a unique music club every evening. The best DJs, crazy lighting effects, bars filled with alcohol, and really hot rhythms! You shouldn’t miss this event!
Visit Ruin Bars. They became popular in Budapest since the founding of Szimpla Kert, the mecca of all ruin bars. These bars were built in the old district of Budapest, District VII (old Jewish Quarter) in the ruins of abandoned buildings, shops, etc. From the outside, these bars look like ordinary buildings but when you walk into the inner courtyard you find yourself inside a cozy, artsy, and trendy bar full of people chatting, dancing, and enjoying the casual atmosphere.
