BUDAPEST

Welcome to the Bluebird Airways flight departing from Terminal 3 in Tel Aviv to Budapest – the capital of Hungary and the beautiful Queen of the Danube. The city connects Buda‚ the seat of the aristocracy and government‚ with bohemian Pest‚ via the famous Chain Bridge; a place where art‚ markets‚ commerce‚ and entertainment meet.

Budapest offers its visitors museums‚ palaces‚ hot springs‚ and medicinal baths‚ alongside breathtaking views of the bridges illuminated at night. You will find a rich classical culture‚ a wonderful shopping experience‚ and vibrant nightlife. The city is also home to a magnificent Jewish community with roots dating back to the Roman Empire. In memory of half of the community that perished in the Holocaust‚ the unique Shoes on the Danube Bank memorial stands as an eternal testimony to a dark chapter in history.

With a European climate offering a hot summer‚ a pleasant and blossoming spring‚ and a white‚ cold winter – Budapest is perfect for a visit all year round.
