Kopaszi-gát is a beautifully landscaped narrow peninsula in south Buda, next to Rákóczi Bridge. Nestled in between the Danube on one side and a protected bay, popular for kayaking, on the other it has a lovely beach feel. Kopaszi-gát is also a favorite picnic spot and the park offers lots of outdoor activities from biking to ball games. It is a great place for kids, with its playgrounds, a sandy beach, green grass with ducks and an indoor playhouse. The sign in the park says it all: 'Fűre lépni szabad!', which means 'walking on the grass is permitted'.

Sightseeing
From the Pest side, the beautifully lit Buda Castle shows its magnificent facade, and the most amazing view to the city is from the castle, too.
But that’s not the only reason why the Buda Castle is the top sight to see in Budapest. Every corner, nook and cranny holds a secret here, as there are over 800 years of history packed into its stones.
From 13th century ruins to the neo-baroque dome all the ages left their marks on the palace.

The tallest building in Budapest (shared with the Parliament, both being 96 m high) is home to not only works of major 19th century artists, but also the mummified right hand of the founding king of Hungary, Saint Stephen, which has been miraculously preserved since the 11th century.

Learn about Hungarian history just by looking at the statues of the square: Archangel Gabriel (who, according to the legend, told St Stephen in a dream that he would be the first king of Christian Hungary) protects the country from atop a a 36-meter column. At the base, you’ll find the seven chieftains of the conquering Hungarian tribes. The 14 statues of the colonnades are of kings and representative figures of the country, and the allegorical bronze figures of War, Peace, Wealth and Labor top the outer edges.
The world’s first public park (yepp, it’s Budapest’s Városliget) begins right behind Heroes’ Square.

Entertainment & Activities
Budapest has several nicknames, like the Paris of East or the Pearl of the Danube, and also the City of Spas.
Indeed, there are so many natural warm spring waters under the city (imagine a cauldron topped with some layers) that Budapest has had several great thermal baths for many centuries. The Turkish baths along the river Danube are still functional and much favored.
But more than a thousand years before the Turks, the Romans and even before them, the Celts had been enjoying the warm spring waters as baths, healing waters and drinks.
