The Pearl of the Danube refers to Budapest. Sometimes you hear the titles The Little Paris, The City of Baths.
Budapest has too many beautiful names and many personalities. Buda and Pest, two cities situated on each side of the Danube River. It is a highly cultured city with a fine populance and it is also one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Budapest has a high standard, low cost lifestyle and the government is not concerned about foreigners provided they do not meddle in Hungarian affairs.
Living here, the Hungarian weather is described as continental climate which is characterized by temperatures that are cold enough to support a fixed period of snow each year, and relatively moderate precipitation year round with a fair amount of it occurring in the summer months.
October sees a period which is known locally as the 'vénasszonyok nyara' which translates directly to mean 'old woman's summer,' also known as Indian Summer. This is due to the continued sunny, clear days which are present throughout September and into October.
September sees an average temperature of about 22 degrees, before falling to 16 degrees in October and falling again to 8 degree by November. Early Autumn is a great time to visit Budapest as the summer tourist peak has died down yet the weather is still very enjoyable and there is a still an abundance of sunny days. Above is a suggested street style of today.
