Budapest is the capital of Hungary. The country is not a part of the European Union, in fact it was tugged away behind the Iron Curtain - until quite recently.
Budapest is rich in beauty, history, culture, delicious food and on top of that; Budapest is one of the most inexpensive cities in Europe. So let your hair down and enjoy a little luxury! Budapest Vacation Rentals
