Once considered an elitist activity and banned, golf is seeing a rapid resurgence in Hungary. Birdland Golf and Country Club (200kms east of Budapest) is playing a key role in this revival.

 

Budapest has one of the most spectacular opera houses in Europe. As performances are often still heavily subsidised by the state, you can’t afford to miss a slice of high culture.

 

At a loss for something to do at 2 o’clock in the morning? Still feel the wind beneath your wing? How about a game of 10-pin bowling? Conveniently situated in the Mammut Shopping Mall in District II, the Mammut Bowling Club’s lanes stay [open] until 3am at weekends.

 

The home of English-language theatre in Budapest, featuring regular performances by local actors as well as internationally acclaimed stars.

 

A shopping mall-based cinema with a difference. Home to the country’s only Digital Light Projector, it also promotes smaller films not normally shown in mainstream theatres.
