Budapest: Hungary
Budapest (pronounced BOO-dah-pesht, IPA /’budap??t/), the capital city of Hungary and the country’s principal political, industrial, commercial and transportation centre, has more than 1.7 million inhabitants, down from a mid-1980s peak of 2.07 million. It became a single city occupying both banks of the river Danube with the amalgamation in 1873 of right-bank Buda (Ofen in German) and buda (Old Buda or Alt-Ofen) together with Pest on the left (east) bank. It is the sixth largest city in the European Union.
Districts of Budapest
Budapest’s districts are numbered basically clockwise, in widening circles, and are organized similarly to the ‘arrondisments’ in Metropolitan Paris.
District I is a small area in central Buda (the western side), including the historic Castle. District II is in Buda again, in the northwest, and District III streches along in the northernmost part of Buda.
