Description

A church that looks like a spaceship from a retro sci-fi; Dracula's staircase; two sections of the Berlin Wall; Portuguese poems on the wall of a metro station; a semi-abandoned airport terminal; a cellar full of pinball machines; ancient Roman dogs' paws in a reception desk; a church that was elevated by a metre; one of the world's largest wine barrels; a horse's shiny balls; an enormous hour glass; a cemetery for railway relics; and wall art hiding a criticism of communist Hungary. These are just a few of the secrets revealed in Secret Budapest.

Far from the crowds and the usual clichés, Budapest offers countless curious experiences and is home to any number of well-hidden treasures, revealed only to residents and travellers who find their way off the beaten track.

An indispensable guide for those who thought they knew Budapest well or would like to discover another side of the city.
