See the Parliament and the Danube views

Budapest's Parliament building is one of the most spectacular in the world, a vast Gothic Revival masterpiece on the riverbank, breathtaking by day and stunning when floodlit at night. You can admire it for free from the Pest embankment or, even better, from across the river on the Buda side. Guided tours of the interior are available and worth booking ahead if you want to go inside. Nearby, the moving Shoes on the Danube memorial is free to visit. We'll point you to the best free viewpoints and explain how to book a tour if you want one.
