NECESSARY INFORMATIONS:

Districts around TCS:

Prices are arranged from lowest, so don’t be surprised if you don’t

find it for that price, but also keep in mind value of the district, so

don’t take most expensive one

All prices are for 2 shared bedrooms because that is what trainees

wants the most, also you can search for more bedrooms

(roommates) if you want, the price is around the same, and it only

gets divided by more people ( so in the end, you pay less)

Downtown Budapest

During the Roman era a fortress, Contra Aquincum, stood in the area,

the ruins of which can be seen at Márcuius 15. tér.

In medieval times Pest functioned as the outskirts of royal Buda but

the settlement quickly developed into a flourishing trade city.

King Matthias made Pest (today's Inner City=Belváros part of district

V.) an independent regal city in 1468.

The city wall was built during that time following the line of today's

Deák Ferenc utca-Károly körút-Múzeum körút-Kálvin tér-Vámház

körút.

District VI has thriving cultural life. Andrássy Avenue is Budapest's

Broadway with the Opera House, Liszt Ferenc Music Academy, and

the Operetta Theater.

Fine places of entertainment, great restaurants, cafés and bars

are around in the neighbourhood.

Terézváros is a place where you can go for a leisurely walk along the

sycamore lined avenue, view the magnificent architectural

masterpieces, sit in a café on Liszt Ferenc tér and contemplate the

busy street life around you.

One of the several Christmas Markets in Budapest are organised at

Liszt Ferenc Square each year, usually from 1st

December till Christmas.

DISTRICT 7

Price from 140000ft (460e)

Kazinczy Street District VII, Budapest

The recently renovated Kazinczy utca is a trendy cultural,

and nightlife hub in Budapest.

It is home to the city's orthodox synagogue, referred to as Kazinczy

Street Synagogue, the Kazimir Tourist Information Point, and a range

of street food bars, ruin and garden pubs (400 Bar, Ellátó Kert, Mika

Tivadar Mulató, Szimpla Kert, Kirakat Pub), and kosher shops.

There's even a kosher pizzeria opposite the synagogue.

DISTRICT 8

Prices 160 000ft (526e)

2 Bedrooms

Some areas are still underdeveloped, though there are large scale

development plans aiming at modernizing this city part.

The district boasts several libraries, hospitals, universities and

museums. Józsfeváros also has two big sport grounds. This district

also functions as the heart of Budapest because the main traffic runs

through Baross utca, Rákóczi út and Üllői út.

The Keleti Train Station is here too. To experience true

Józsfeváros and find some hidden treasures, walk in the streets

beyond Grand Boulevard and on Rákóczi út. Crumbling inner

courtyards, shabby houses with eclectic facades and old shops

dominate this part of Budapest. Because of the great Chinese market

you'll meet many Chinese people.

Józsfeváros is unfortunately one of the most criminal-ridden parts of

Budapest. No wonder that its nickname is Chicago.

Avoid walking alone at night in the outer parts of District VII, they

aren't the safest area of the district!

DISTRICT 9

Price 152 000ft (500e)

2 Bedrooms

One of the most diverse districts of Budapest. Its atmosphere is

much like Józsfeváros', though Ferencváros is a rapidly

developing part of the capital. Despite, the area has to cope with

serious social and environmental problems. The district has many

monuments that are in need of renovation.

The biggest development project is undergoing on the former Expo

96' site on the Danube bank.

The new National Theater on the Pest side of the Danube near

Rákóczi Bridge was built a couple of years ago. Next to the National

Theatre, the Palace of Arts was finished in 2005. It houses the

National Concert Hall and the Ludwig Contemporary Arts Museum.

District IX. has one of the most important Jewish sights of

Budapest. Next to the synagogue in Páva Street opened

the Holocaust Memorial Center (Holokauszt Emlékközpont) in

2004.

DISTRICT 11

Price from 150 000ft (500e)

2 Bedrooms

Wealthy citizens lived here before they moved to the Buda Hills.

The district embraces Gellért Hill. Climb up the hill and you can

enjoy one of the best panoramic views of Budapest. The limestone

hill towers above the Danube and forms a characteristic part of the

city scape.

Móricz Zsigmond körtér is the focal point of everyday life here.

The square is a major public transport hub. Several trams and buses

have stops here.

DISTRICT 12

Price from 170 000FT (560e)

2 shared Bedrooms

District XII is the lung of Budapest. Despite the increasing

construction works, extensive patches of forest cover the Buda

Hills.

You'll find it a bit difficult to get to some outer areas in the district

due to the hilly terrain. Several public transport bus services get you

to the inner parts of the area.

The hills are ideal for hiking and to get some fresh air and

peacefulness after the busy city center.

Enjoy the beautiful view of Budapest from the lookout point

on Széchenyi Hill.

Angyalföld literally means Land of Angels. It has two completely

different parts. The southern part (Újlipótváros) along Grand

Boulevard is a continuation of the inner city, while northern

Angyalföld is the most typical working class area in Budapest.

The most popular attraction is the idyllic Margaret

Island (Margitsziget). If you want to get away from the bustling city,

head for Margitsziget for a walk, or jog along the Danube.

Shopping addicts would also love this district, one of the

biggest Budapest shopping malls, Duna Plaza is on Váci út.

The district plays an important role in Budapest's transportation

with Nyugati Train Station and the coach station at Árpád Bridge.

Since the Danube borders Angyalföld, you can get there by boat

operated by the city's public transport company (BKV).

Also this district is a little bit far away from TCS

DISTRICT 14

Price range 110000 ft (410e)

Zugló is Budapest's second greenest district that has recently been

undergoing a residential development, because it's become a very

popular target for citizens planning to buy an apartment.
