Budapest

Budapest · Hungary

Admission and costs
The Szent István tér and Vörösmarty tér markets are free to enter. Food, drinks and purchases cost extra; basilica admission, treasury visits and the panoramic terrace require their own attraction tickets.
Getting there
From Budapest-Nyugati station, walk along Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út towards St Stephen’s Basilica and Szent István tér. After Advent Bazilika, continue through the centre to Vörösmarty tér: these markets have separate calendars and are not one enclosed venue.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
St Stephen’s Basilica, Szent István tér 1, offers an indoor visit with separate tickets for its visitor areas. Worship and sightseeing follow their own schedules; market admission does not include basilica admission.

Caserta · Royal Palace

Province of Caserta · Campania · Italy

Admission and costs
The combined Apartments, Park and English Garden ticket costs €18, plus €1 online. The Royal Nativity is inside the Apartments, so a park-only ticket excludes it. TicketOne is the palace’s authorised online seller; exit and re-entry are not permitted.
Getting there
Alight at Caserta station opposite the palace. Cross towards Piazza Carlo di Borbone and reach the main complex entrance; the Apartments visit is distinct from access on the park side. Keep your ticket and complete your chosen route before leaving the complex.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
The Royal Apartments form the indoor core of the visit, including the nativity in Sala Ellittica. The evening Apartments ticket from 17:00 costs €5 plus €1 online and does not include the full daytime park visit.
