Budapest: ID 790 -The Business Environment in Transition Economies of Central and Eastern European Countries

A rich history and culture combined with a very pleasant weather in July and an excellent cuisine make Budapest a very attractive destination: With its beautiful setting and marvelous panoramic views Budapest is one of the most attractive European capitals. It was much admired in the Middle Ages as the following mediaeval saying shows "the most beautiful towns of Europe are Florence on the lowland, Venice on the water and Buda on the hills." In modern times Budapest's outstanding qualities were recognized by UNESCO in 1987 when this agency of the United Nations inscribed Budapest, including the banks of the Danube and the Buda Castle district on the World Heritage List.
