This impressive neo-Gothic building was built in 1894 to replace the expansive outdoor markets at the location. The largest market hall in Budapest is a buzzing scene of everyday life in the city, with several floors to explore: the basement area houses several fish stalls and a supermarket, the ground floor is the main area mainly occupied by grocers, and the upper floor is home to souvenir stands and street food stalls. Make sure you try 'lángos', a deep-fried dough, traditionally topped with cheese and sour cream.

Andrássy út, often referred to as Budapest's own Champs-Élysées, is an elegant tree-lined boulevard connecting the city centre, Erzsébet Square, to Heroes' Square. Notable for hosting the first continental underground line in Europe, the avenue is lined with magnificent Neo-renaissance mansions and townhouses boasting intricate facades and interiors. Also recognised as one of the city's most prestigious shopping streets, it features high-end boutiques, cafés, restaurants, theatres, and embassies. Given its cultural and architectural significance, Andrássy út earned recognition as a World Heritage Site in 2002.
