One of the most beautiful viewpoints in Budapest is inside the dome of St. Stephen’s Basilica.

From the top, you can enjoy stunning views of the Ferris wheel, the Parliament, Buda Castle, and Gellért Hill.
You can reach the dome by climbing over 100 spiral steps or by elevator.

The adult ticket costs 2,200 HUF and includes access to the treasury. Tickets are sold outside the basilica, across the entrance near the Starbucks. It can be quite windy at the top.

Tips: Explore the iconic St. Stephen’s Basilica with a pre-booked entry ticket. Upgrade your experience by choosing the option that includes access to the panoramic terrace for stunning city views.
