The ancient coffee houses are great places to catch your breath during a day of walking, shopping and sampling culture. The bars and restaurants are generally very affordable. And otherwise, there is always the Great Market Hall where you can score fresh ingredients to prepare your own meal. Budapest is famous for its many historic bathhouses, where you can relax in a pool or sauna.

This campsite is in the town of Szentendre. Here, you camp at a friendly campsite located on one of the islands in the Danube. Your camping pitch is about 16 miles from the circuit.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8211; Campsites near the F1 circuit:<\/h3>\n\n<h2>Discover more of Hungary\u2019s highlights<\/h2>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Lake Balaton: fun in the water in the west <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, the capital city of Hungary is a genuine tourist attraction, but the country also has a lot more to offer.
