Budapest is one of Europe's most exciting, historical and beautiful capital cities and District XIII is one of its most popular areas. It has long enjoyed a reputation as Pest's attractive riverside district with superb views of Margaret Island, excellent road and public transport links to the city centre - and now District XIII is now enjoying a new lease of life as an up-and-coming business district.
Traditionally a middle-class suburb offering comfortable housing, it is now being developed as a docklands area, with many new housing projects designed to appeal to the new residents arriving to enjoy District XIII's unique ambience. Dedicated shoppers will also be interested to learn that it is the home of West-end City Centre, Budapest's largest shopping centre.
