district in Budapest

Europe > Central Europe > Hungary > Central Hungary > Budapest > Budapest/Terézváros

Terézváros (https://www.terezvaros.hu/)
is the traditional name of the VI. district of
Budapest. "Teréz" refers to Empress Maria
Theresa of Austria and Hungary.

Understand
The main feature of Terézváros is
Andrássy út, the avenue built to emulate
the Champs-Élysées of Paris. It connects
the Erzsébet Square in V. District and
Heroes' Square in City Park. It crosses the
körút (boulevard ringroad) at the always-
busy Oktogon square, which got its name
from its shape. At the end of Andrássy út
the City Park (Városliget) is probably the
most pleasant of Pest's districts and
houses a number of interesting if low-key
attractions often skipped by the package
tour companies. The area is easily
accessible with the yellow subway line
(nearest station : Hősök tere) and entry
into the park, including the castle grounds,
is free. All this area, including the
Underground Railway is part of the
UNESCO World Heritage list.

Budapest-Nyugati
1 Nyugati pályaudvar (Budapest-

Nyugati Railway Terminal, Western

Railway Station), at the intersection of
Grand Boulevard and Váci Avenue. ( :
'Nyugati pályaudvar' or tram: 4, 6 or bus 9,
26, 91, 191, 226, 291). Nyugati
(Hungarian for "western") is actually in
the east of the city, but its name is due
to that it used to serve western-oriented
railway lines, which is no more the case,
as the station is limited to handling
domestic traffic, including this coming
from the east like from Debrecen or
Szeged. You may also end up there
when coming from abroad, as the trains
stopping at Ferihegy arrive here. You
can use those trains to connect to bus
200E from Budapest Ferihegy
International Airport. The bus-train
combination is the quickest way to get
to the city centre from the airport. The
square in front of the station
(predictably named Nyugati ter) also
serves as a transport hub with several
bus routes, tram routes 4 and 6, and a
station on M3 line of the Budapest
Metro.
From downtown take M1 metro.

Grand Boulevard and Váci Avenue. ( :
'Nyugati pályaudvar' or tram: 4, 6 or bus 9,
26, 91, 191, 226, 291). Designed planned
by August de Serres and was built by the
Eiffel Company, the station opened on
28 October 1877, replacing the previous
one razed to make place for the
Nagykörút (Grand Boulevard). The
station building retains the atmosphere
of bygone days, in particular the ticket
hall. There is a corridor between the
main station entrance and McDonald's
on the right-hand side of the main
entrance. Formerly the station
restaurant, this McDonald's is reputed to
be the most elegant in the world. Apart
from the ornate lighting, ceiling
mouldings and general décor of the fast-
food restaurant, Nyugati station
McDonald's has a McCafé on the
mezzanine floor, serving coffee and
cakes in a more comfortable
environment than the lower floor. Also
worth mentioning is the Royal Waiting
Room (http://muza.hu/infoen-royal-wait
ing-room) , built for Emperor Franz
Joseph I. This can be found about 100
m on the left-hand side after entering
the main station hall behind a pair of
high doors. Beside the railway station
and partially above its open area there is
the WestEnd City Center shopping mall.

3PM and 4PM. It is home to the
Budapest Opera Ball, a society event
dating back to 1886. Before the closure
of "Népszínház" in Budapest, it was the
second largest opera building in
Budapest. Today it is the largest Opera
building in Budapest and Hungary. But
even if tickets are expensive you will
enjoy the performance even if you're not
an opera buff. You can get cheaper
tickets during the summer when there
often are opera festivals. Most operas
are in Italian, but at the State Opera they
subtitle the entire performance in
Hungarian. The hall is beautiful and in
its original state. On the balcony
surrounding the hall they have put the
name of every classic opera performed
there into the wood. It has to be seen to
be fully appreciated. Appropriate dress:
suits or sport coats for men, dress or
skirt/blouse for women. However formal
wear to backpacker wear is seen during
the week. One of Europe's architecturally
most breathtaking opera house's
company performs traditional opera and
ballet. The quality of its huge repertoire
is not always up to international
standards, but if you don't expect too
much, you will spend a decent night.
Cheaper tickets offering reduced
visibility are a good deal if you don't
want to pay Ft2,500 for the official
