Slovakian Highlands

Budapest Panorama
Aerial views of the Danube River, the Parliament building, and Buda Castle during the landing sequence.
The right side is essential for mountain lovers; the High Tatras are visible mid-flight and are spectacular when snow-capped in winter. For the best view of the Danube and the Parliament building, choose a window seat on this side, especially if the plane approaches Budapest from the north. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for photography of the mountain ranges.
