Góra Gellerta

Gellert Hill is a picturesque limestone hill rising 235 meters above Budapest, offering breathtaking views of the city and the Danube River.

It's a place full of history, named after Bishop Gellert, who died a martyr's death here in the 11th century. At the top is the impressive Citadel, a 19th-century fortress that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the monumental Freedom Monument.

Explore the enchanting Garden of the Philosophers with its bronze statues of thinkers, or descend into the mysterious caves formed by thermal springs. The best time to visit? Sunrise or sunset, when the city bathes in golden light.
