Pest
Destinations
- Budapest31.7 km from downtownHighlights:<p><span style="color: | 06071f;">Budapest has a unique twin-city pattern of "Buda on the left bank and Pest on the right bank" because the Danube River runs through the city. This geographical feature gives the cruise tour an irreplaceable experience value. </span></p><p><span style="color: | 06071f;"><strong>Epic landscape of the twin-city system:</strong> The Danube divides the city into the medieval charm of the Buda Castle Hill and the Baroque splendor of the Pest Plain. The cruise passes through five bridges of different styles, including the Szechenyi Chain Bridge, Elizabeth Bridge, and Liberty Bridge. On the left bank, you can see the thousand-year vicissitudes of the Buda Castle and the new Romanesque style of the Fisherman's Bastion, while on the right bank, you can see the brilliant reflection of the neo-Gothic spire of the Parliament Building - this building, which consumes 40 kilograms of gold decoration, is like a floating golden palace in the twilight. As an oasis in the middle of the river, Margaret Island, with its century-old trees and musical fountains, forms a harmonious symphony of nature and humanity. <br></span><img class="confluence-embedded-image confluence-external-resource" height="250" src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0101312000kre0zod3BC4_W_10000_1200.jpg?proc=autoorient" data-image-src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0101312000kre0zod3BC4_W_10000_1200.jpg?proc=autoorient"></p><p><span style="color: | 06071f;"><strong>An architectural epic connected by 9 bridges:</strong> The cruise ship usually starts from the Chain Bridge and passes through 9 bridges of different styles, including the Margaret Bridge, Elizabeth Bridge, and Liberty Bridge, covering core landmarks such as the Buda Castle District, Gellert Hill, the Parliament Building, and the Fisherman's Bastion. Some routes extend to Margaret Island to visit the Oasis Park and the Angel Statue on the Pier. <br></span><img class="confluence-embedded-image confluence-external-resource" height="250" src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0100412000kre090cE46C_W_10000_1200.jpg?proc=autoorient" data-image-src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0100412000kre090cE46C_W_10000_1200.jpg?proc=autoorient"></p><p><span style="color: | 06071f;"><strong>Immersive experience:</strong> The Blue Danube Waltz is often played on the ship, and the light show on both sides of the river transforms the historical buildings into a mobile stage. The deck view allows you to capture the reflections of the 87 spires of the Capitol and the silhouette of the Fisherman's Bastion Corridor. The night cruise lasts about 60-90 minutes. During the blue hour (20 minutes after sunset), the contrast between the deep blue of the sky and the golden light of the buildings is the most atmospheric. <br></span><img class="confluence-embedded-image confluence-external-resource" height="250" src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0103e12000kroi9sbD61F_W_10000_1200.png?proc=autoorient" data-image-src="https://nephele.ctrip.com/target/0103e12000kroi9sbD61F_W_10000_1200.png?proc=autoorient"></p><p><span style="color: | 06071f;">When the cruise ship passed through the Liberty Bridge, the Statue of Liberty on Gellert Hill raised its palm leaves in the sunset. Budapest, with its 2,000 years of civilization, has completed the most perfect interpretation of "a moveable feast". </span></p>2 attraction

- Best time to visit:Mar-May, Sep-Nov(Open all year)Budapest34.9 km from downtownHighlights:Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is not only the pearl of the Danube, but also hides the only explorable urban underground cave system in Europe. Millions of years ago, volcanic activity and hot spring erosion carved out a fantastic maze with a total length of more than 40 kilometers at the bottom of the Buda Mountains. Palvolgyi Cave and Semler Cave are famous for their honeycomb-shaped caves and stalactites. The twisted rock corridors are covered with silica crystals, and the snowflakes and coral-like calcite clusters formed by hot spring precipitation flash like stars under the searchlight. Explorers can wear professional equipment, crawl through narrow fossil passages, cross the calcified pools formed by underground hot spring erosion, and occasionally encounter prehistoric shell marks on the cave walls. The air-raid shelters left over from World War II and the medieval wine cellars are intertwined, and the traces of gunpowder smoke can still be felt by touching the rock walls. Professional guides often design "Earth Center Jigsaw Puzzle" challenges to connect geological wonders with historical codes. The hot spring steam is lingering in the depths of the cave, making this underground time and space travel in the city a three-dimensional epic of nature and humanity.2 attraction
