The Huffington Post is one of the most popular internet portals, a liberal news aggregator and blog in the USA. Regarding readership, it is the biggest rival of the New York Times. Budapest has already appeared in plenty of articles and on several honourable lists; was among recommended winter destinations but made the list of 20 cities you must see before your 30th birthday and another of the most overlooked European cities, too.

Apparently, the Hungarian capital is worth visiting at least once in a lifetime, this time, according to the Huffington Post, we’re among cities you must see before you die. They refer to Budapest as a „city often considered to be the most beautiful in Europe” and mention the unique history, the numerous empires that ruled over the capital and left a trace on it. „Add a rowdy nightlife scene and plenty of hot springs, and you've got a recipe for travel bliss”, huffingtonpost.com says.

The first 3 places of the list are occupied by Venice (the winner), Seville, the crown-jewel of imperial Spain and the "Crossroads of the World", New York City. The fact that there are only 3 other cities from the same region on the list of 50 (Vienna, Dubrovnik and Prague) may compensate us for being in the 50th place.
