    Gouba started up again for spring Sunday 13 March.
    Great news!
    This modern bazaar is located in the unique architectural gem, the Gozsdu udvar (courtyard passageway between Kiraly utca and Dob utca in the heart of Pest's Jewish quarter).
    Unique antiques, gifts, gastronomy, performances. Try Hungarian palinka (fruit brandy) or fine local wines.

    We stayed there for 9 days last month and it was very good, comfortable and quiet apartment and right by the river and the Vaci shopping street. The owner was very helpfull even before we arrived in his emails and gave us a lot of good advices about where to go and what to see and so on. Even when we got there he took us on a short walk to show us where everything is in the area so really good service. We are going again later in this year when the weather gets warmer so that we can enjoy the balcony and views. We really recomend this place to stay in Budapest.

    Found this place on tripadvisor but they have a web site www.budapestvacationservice.com. The street name is Regi Posta Street.

    The Budapest Great Market Hall

    Posted by Sipi 14 February 2011

    The Great Market Hall is centrally located and the largest market in the central Budapest area, on the Pest side of the Liberty Bridge. The building is of beautiful neo-Gothic construction with intricate, heavily-decorated roof tiling.

    The market is a three-storey structure, supported with slender metal columns. Even today the market is used by the people of the city for daily necessities such as vegetables, meat and fish. It is also a tourist mecca with lots of traditional salami and paprika on sale. The basement holds a supermarket for convenience shopping.

    The sights and smells of this market are unforgettable, but it's setting is the cherry on the cake.

    Enoteca 'Vino Fino'

    Posted by Woodyfan 14 June 2008

    If you visit Heroes' Square, I strongly recommend to pass by this small and cosy wine store on the nearby Damjanich Street. It has a wide range of Hungarian and Italian wines, and absolutely not a rip-off like other wine stores in the centre. The staff speak German and Italian, but no English - yet.

    Best flea market, along with the monthly market in Pecs, in central Europe. Eat, drink and be fascinated.

    Immense indoor market featuring local specialties, exotic fruits and vegetables, etc. The top floor has several inexpensive places to grab a bite, and lots of souvenir stalls.

    Vásárcsarnok

    Posted by Leanyfalu 13 February 2006

    This is an old market hall close to Liberty Bridge, not far from Kalvin ter tube station. Shopping can be an experience and the architecture is of exceptional value. Most vendors remember that Margaret Thatcher visited the market in 1984, but this should not be seen as argument against a visit. Next door you will find the neo-renaissance building of the economics faculty.

    Ecesri Market

    Posted by Strassy 10 February 2006

    The Ecseri Flea Market in the ninth district has many treasures for collectors, browsers and anyone looking for an unusual souvenir to take home. I got a really old violin for $50. I’m convinced it's a Strad...

    Apparently the Cityrama agency organises direct shuttles from the city centre; www.cityrama.hu/
