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.
