About
Completed in 1905 after more than half a century of work, the basilica honours Stephen, Hungary's first king. Its chapel keeps his mummified right hand, the nation's most revered relic, and a walkway around the dome gives some of the best views across Pest.
Best time to go: Climb or take the lift to the dome's panoramic walkway, then see the Holy Right chapel inside.
