Good to know for Budapest

Pest is flat, Buda climbs. Castle Hill, Gellért Hill and the viewpoints come via stairs and switchbacks, and a second pair of socks after the baths is nicer than it sounds.

The currency is the forint. Cards are widely taken, but lockers, markets and some bath counters occasionally want notes or coins.

Summer is hot and dry, winter cold with wind off the Danube. Moving between a steam room and an outdoor pool below zero is a strong argument for a hat and a dry change of clothes.
