In November 2023 I visited Budapest for 4 days, but with travel it made for 3 usable days to wander around.
I had a list of places to visit from a friend of mine who was born and raised in Budapest, I split them up in to two days - conveniently they split into Buda & Pest - if you didn't know, that's the two sides of the river Danube and the former cities that make up what is now Budapest
