Labyrinth of Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary

  • Address Úri utca 9
    1014 Budapest
    Hungary
  • Phone number+36 1 212 0207

Located beneath the Castle Hill, this is a maze of tunnels that literally runs into miles. It contains huge, cavernous rooms, originally intended as cellars and bomb shelters. Some of the tunnels can be explored without a guide. One section even features reproductions of cave paintings from around Europe. There is also a café (a cup of tea is included in the ticket price) and an underground shop. Another great thing about these tunnels is that when it is scorching hot outside, it remains cool and airy down below. A flashlight (torch) might be advisable, as several sections of the maze are almost pitch black.
