Which sights should I visit indoors in Budapest?
There are two main sights to consider if you want to go inside: the Parliament and the Great Synagogue. The Parliament is the most important building in Hungary and is as beautiful inside as it is outside. To Hungarians, the parliament building represents national history, identity, and sovereignty, and the interior reflects that. The Great Synagogue is unique and very beautiful as well. Both sights offer paid tours, well organized and informative. Tickets for the Parliament tour can be purchased here, you have to do it well in advance because it’s very busy and often sold out.
