About Fisherman's Bastion
Pack your camera for a trip to Budapest’s Fisherman’s Bastion, reputed to offer the best views in this historic city. Built in 1902, the massive neo-Gothic, neo-Romanesque structure sits atop Castle Hill in a location adjacent to Matthias Church. Filled with winding staircases, parapets, turrets and white stone projections, on a clear day, the Bastion offers unrivaled views of Margaret Island, Saint Stephen’s Basilica and Parliament. Seven towers that symbolize the seven historic tribes of Hungary offer the best photography angles; you can enter them for a small fee. Entrance to the rest of the Bastion terrace is free of charge.

Maybe the best view of the city, the first entrance there s an entrance fee, however continuing along the Church , on the second tower the entrance is free. Worth the views over the city, Parliament and other majestic buildings .
One of the most beautiful places in the city, day or night. The light is amazing in this place and it's astonishing to walk around in. The views are amazing.
Beautiful views over the city. A must visit when visiting Budapest. Also the Matias Church next to it is impressive
A must stop. Beautiful architecture and great views of the city from this location.
A trip up to Fisherman's Bastion in Buda offers arguably the best views in the whole city. This massive structure of white stone is joy to walk around and explore. Here you'll look out over the Danube, the stunning Parliament building and all of Pest stretching out into the distance.
For me the most beautiful place in Buda. From the tom you can see beauty of the city during day and also during night when everything is sparkling and shining.
A beautyful panaroma place to the city on the Castle Hill in front of Matthias Church. This complex built from the supports of the guild of Fischerman's, thatswhy the comical name. Take Your camera and enjoy the view to the Pest side of the city.
One of the first places you should visit when you are in Budapest so that you can get a great view of the city. The walls are not old, but were rebuilt in a great "old castle" look. It is quite a hike up the hill, but you can also take a taxi or the funicular if you are not up to the physical activity.
day or night the views are spectacular. get some snacks and some wine or beer and enjoy the view
Really beautiful complex in the Buda castle district that overlooks the river. I went there at night and it was magical! You have to pay to climb up the towers (which were shut when I went) but you can still view the river from the lower parts.
