Why you should visit it
Taking a dip in the most famous Turkish Bath in Budapest is a must. This thermal spa, built by the Turks in 1566, retains a strong Islamic style and a uniquely magnificent architecture. You have to wear a cloth in the various hot waters and pools, thus you will see naked people relaxed not ashamed of their bodies, but if you are offended stay home!
Special tip
Visit the baths between 22:00-04:00 on Friday and Saturday for a unique experience. Be prepared to meet a mix of artsy, bohemian and gay people!
