Saint Stephen’s Basilica, Budapest’s largest church and one of its breathtaking buildings – built between 1851 and 1905 by such giants as József Hild, Miklós Ybl and József Kauser – can accommodate up to 8000 people at a time. And why wouldn’t you be one of them? We’ve got many reasons for you to head to the magnificent church during the summer. But, the main one is their organ night series that you might even want to combine with a night cruise and a dinner. While there, be sure to climb the steps/take the elevator to the 65-meter-high lookout at the top, offering a spine-tingling view of the capital.
