I can’t imagine a better time to visit Budapest than Christmas. It feels like you time travel to the decor of an old Christmas Movie, medieval building all around and no shortage of Christmas lights and decoration. Such a wonderfull setting for the authentic Christmas Markets! No visit is complete without having tried the Glühwein and the Kurtoskalacs. Apart from looking wonderful and smelling amazing, this Hungarian treat tastes like Christmas (amazing!!).
