Don’t forget to mention that Budapest’s best cafe and bar street is right in front of the Opera house. It is awesome in the summer time with all the outdoor tables.

Great post. I would love to visit Budapest, Hungary. I am part Hungarian and would like to know more about my family and heritage. Perhaps a trip will be in order this year…

thanks for the post – I’ve been to the state opera house in budapest and it truly is stunning…. a great alternative to the Vienna statsoper if it’s too expensive, since this opera house (from what I remember) is modelled after the larger Viennese one, by the same architect.

Enjoyed the post, Olivia. Eastern European definately has some inexpensive gems in the opera arena. I saw Don Giovanni in Prague for a fraction of the cost that would have been paid in NYC.
