There are many books about Budapest – sometimes we feel too many – but the new book of Kinga Tattel is a niche one. Fabulous Budapest is the new, revised, extended, English version of the successful „Mesélő Budapest”. It’s a family travel guide that also gives an insight into the history and culture of the Hungarians. The beautifully drawn maps, countless photos and text boxes will give you a colorful and enjoyable experience as well as a better understanding of the city and its people.

Hungary's capital is visited by millions of tourists every year but the author says; only a few know why Fisherman’s Bastion has seven towers. Have you ever heard of the bridge masters and do you know what their job was? Do you know who the fiancé of Budapest was? Would you think that the first metro was built because Andrássy Avenue had beautiful wooden pavement that time and the city administration didn’t want to ruin it? Why there are no skyscrapers in Budapest? When does Budapest celebrate its birthday?

If you want to find out the answer to all of these questions and even more about our beautiful capital, then be sure to listen to what Budapest is telling you!
