This centuries-old waterfront path stretches between the Elisabeth Chain Bridge and Széchenyi Chain Bridge. On the northeast side of the Danube there is a monument called ‘Shoes on the Banks of the Danube’ which consists of 60 pairs of steel shoes, commemorating the Jewish civilians who were shot by the Nazis.
• Castle Hill: Budapest's Castle Hill rises above the River Danube and is home to many of the city's most important medieval monuments and museums. Topping the list of these impressive structures is the 18th-century Buda Castle. This is a massive 200-room palace that replaced a 13th-century castle. It was built to defend the fortress against Mongol and Tatar attacks.
• St. Stephen's Basilica: St. Stephen's Cathedral is a popular tourist attraction known for its impressive architecture, interior beauty, and panoramic views from its dome. Dedicated to St. Stephen, Holy King of Hungary, and founder of the Hungarian state, the cathedral began construction in 1851 but suffered several failures, including the collapse of an unfinished dome. It was not consecrated until 1905.
• Fisherman's Bastion: Overlooking the River Danube stands the impressive Fisherman's Bastion where the city's fisherman's guild built its defensive walls in the Middle Ages. This elaborate collection of neo-Romanesque towers, courtyards, colonnades, and walls was built between 1895 and 1902. It is one of the city's most popular tourist attractions, and the main tower offers spectacular views of the city and the Danube.
