Hungary

Budapest is Hungary’s capital and largest city, with a population of 1,778,052. It stands in central Hungary and is the country’s main urban base for visitors.

Most international travellers arrive through Budapest Airport (BUD), the city’s listed airport. Budapest is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips are not a central part of a stay here.
