Budapest is on the Danube: Buda -west bank and Pest-east bank.  In 1956 it was the scene of the Hunargian Revolution.  That event was a bloody one as the patriots attacked Soviet tanks with what was known as a Molotov Cocktail, gasoline in a bottle with a  piece of cloth torched by a match as the fuse.  Soviet troops left the country in 1991.  Castle hill is worth the view and the steam baths are world-renowned.  Budapest  is a walkable city.
