Margitsziget (Margit Island) is located between Margit and Árpád bridges. The island was named after the daughter of King Béla IV who lived in an island’s convent in 13th century. This public park is very popular among locals and tourists. There are two spa hotels (Grand Hotel and Thermal Hotel) and two public baths on the island. The biggest swimming complex, Palatinus strand, has cold and warm water pools, water slides and an artificial wave pool.
You can also rent a bike on Margitsziget. When entering the park from Margit Bridge turn to your left to find the bike shed.
How to get by public transport:
Bus 26 from Nyugati tér, which circulates through the island.
Tram 4 or 6, which stops on Margit Bridge right at the park entrance.
