Budapest is full of life even in the really cold and snowy months but you need to research a bit on the current february events.
Architecture of budapest is more colossal and romantic the nature is more beautiful that wide river with traveling international ships and nice highlands of buda. Families and fish fans gather to eat tons of crispy fried sea bream.
