a night on the town
Get out and about in Budapest after dark and you'll experience a whole other side of the city and you don't even have to start on dry land.
Climb aboard one of the many party cruises that paddle revelers up and down the Danube, and get set for a unique clubbing experience. A38 is one of the most popular cruise boats, boasting some of the worlds best DJs, spinning the latest dance anthems late into the night.
If you're not game to get the party started on your sea legs, head to the funky Krudy Gyula region, where you'll find spacious outdoor courtyard bars like Darshan Udvar. Pull up a pew at one of the long wooden tables, order yourself a jug of local beer or wine, and sit back and check out all the young club-goers.
For a brew with a view, try Negro Cafe at Szent Istven in the heart of the city. In this atmospheric outdoor bar its always easy to find a seat looking out over the stunning St. Stephen's Basilica. It isn't the view that all the locals flock here for, though. Negro Cafe is all about the cocktails, and the flamboyant bartenders are always happy to mix you up a drink you'll forever compare all others by.
