Budapest Named Fourth Most Instagrammable Destination in Europe
Published: May 14th, 2019Looking for your next Insta-worthy travel destination? Put Budapest on your travel wishlist.
Trundling around Budapest in its charming, creaking yellow trams, its beauty is obvious. The city is a riot of architectural styles; sprawling palaces, expansive public spaces, and wide avenues filled with the former mansions of various princelings. The remains of long-gone empires are still here for all to see. If there were such a thing as building porn, this is the place to find it. Mix this with the sweeping city views, ruinous bars, and old world charm, and you have one of Europe’s most Instagrammable cities.
Only three destinations – Dubrovnik in Croatia, Iceland, and the Scottish Highlands – were ranked ahead of the Hungarian capital on the list.
According to Big 7 Travel, the final results were ranked in order of their visual allure and popularity on social media.
