A ride on the Budapest Eye [1051 Budapest, Erzsébet tér] can give you a whole new angle on the city, this giant Ferris wheel was built by 15 people in 8 days!
Located in Erzsebet Square, right smack in the middle of all the downtown action, you are guaranteed excellent panoramic views when you get to the height of the ride.
It’s a bit pricey at just under $9, but worth it for those who may not be into hiking up hills and would like to see the city from above. You are seated in a large enclosed car and the wheel will rotate three full times. You get particularly interesting views of the nearby St. Stephen’s Basilica.
The ride stays open late, so this would be an amazing and romantic vantage point to see the city lit up at night!
