"The Hungarian Parliament building, built in 1902, is the third largest in the world, after the Romanian and Argentine ones. The Parliament of Budapest has become the symbol of the city, and is a masterpiece in Gothic style with neo-baroque influences. I recommend you visit it both from the outside and inside, taking part in a guided tour.
