Buda neighbourhood ranked among world’s coolest
TimeOut travel guides has selected the Margit District as one of the 39 coolest neighbourhoods in the world, ranking it 34th overall.
The Buda neighbourhood in District II is praised as a place where, nightlife, art, culture, and affordable food and drink can be found on every corner” and “where diversity is supported and independent businesses flourish.”
Inspired by the success of Bartok Bela ut in District 11, the local government is encouraging entrepreneurs to open trendy cafes and cool boutiques to create an exciting new neighbourhood near Margit Bridge, where past, present, and future blend harmoniously.
This neighbourhood has made significant progress in this area, as a Spanish/Japanese fusion restaurant is flanked by a shoemaker’s workshop reminiscent of the past, as is the nearby Lottery House, built during the socialist era.
“This is Budapest as it once was, shoulder-to-shoulder with its future,” TimeOut writes. (jo.444.hu; vg.hu)
