What people say

"The Lukàcs baths, or the Baths of San Luca, have very ancient origins: they date back to the 12th century when the baths were built next to the monasteries to treat sick people. In 1884 Fülöp Palotay decided to purchase the entire structure, making it a spa centre. The structure is a true work of art that has maintained its original beauty dating back to that period: in fact, the marble plaques left as a sign of gratitude by the sick during the Middle Ages can still be admired today. 👣How to get there: Tram stop: Margit Hid, Lines 4,6,17 and 19. 🎟️Ticket cost:about 22€"

Mentioned in these guides

A merger of two old cities in 1873 - Buda and Pest, separated by the Danube River - the capital of Hungary seems like a place out of a fairy tale. 🏰 With some castles here and some other majestic buildings there, I found it to be an elegant, chic and romantic city, with different cultural influences (such as Roman, Ottoman, Slavic, Jewish and Austrian). Known as the “Paris of the East” or the “Pearl of the Danube”, the city is also designated as the “City of SPAs”, therefore this guide includes a list of some famous thermal baths and SPAs, alongside dining/drinking and shopping venues. Of course, all the major tourist attractions are included, as well. ✨Must Do: go on an evening sightseeing cruise along the Danube! 🌶️Hungarian cuisine is synonymous with paprika. Few cuisines are quite so intertwined with a single ingredient as Hungary’s is with paprika — the spice that gives some of the country’s best-known dishes their intense orange colour and characteristic peppery flavour. Paprika is made from the dried ground pods of several types of capsicum annuum pepper, and it comes in a range of heat levels from édes (sweet) to csipos (hot) and different levels of coarseness. In Budapest it’s sold everywhere, from small grocery stores to local food markets, where small-scale producers sell it by the kilogram in unlabelled plastic bags. For the highest quality, seek reputable family producers such as Hódi or PaprikaMolnár.
