"Step back in time and discover the enchanting Cave Church carved into the Buda Hills. Originally a hermit's cave in the Middle Ages, it later became a church and a place of refuge during Ottoman rule. The atmospheric setting and unique history make it a hidden gem worth exploring."
"5 PM - Closed on Sundays. When we went on Monday, the cave church was surprisingly closed. There's still a nice view of the Danube River/Liberty Bridge "
