Andrássy is by far the most beautiful large avenue of Budapest. Every visitor should walk through it from one end to another. You’ll find nice shops, Cafés, restaurants (don’t miss Klassz!) but above all, architecture.
Waiting to be filled with Gönci Barack Pálinka.
Gyermekvasút (children train) is still partly operated by underage kids, mostly in their early teens. During the socialist era these girls and boys were dressed in socialist youth uniforms.
The Széchenyi-hegy station where you can hop off from Fogaskerekű and hop on the Gyermekvasút to take a pleasant tour in the Buda hills.

Szimpla Kertmozi is a partly open-air movie theater, today mostly frequented by university students and other intellectuals. It is [...]
Another photo of the Budapest Opera building. The main entrance is from the Andrássy avenue.
The artists’ entrance, I think, this is, of the Budapest Opera. Anyway, it’s just a nice building in a nice neighborhood in the VIth District. Beautiful building (inside and outside), venue of mediocre spectacles and a pathetic new year party every year.
