Old Obuda consists of two colorful, surrounded by gray high-rise buildings, squares - Szentlekek ter and Fo ter (Szentlekek ter, Fo ter).
Szentlekek ter ("Square of the Holy Spirit") is located in the immediate vicinity of the Á rpá d bridge. The square is decorated with the column of the Holy Trinity and the Church of St. Peter and Paul. Today it is hard to believe that for a long time there was a wasteland on the site of these two Obuda squares. Looted after the departure of the Turks, the ruins were restored at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
On Fö ter ("Main Square" in Obud) is the city municipality. It is said that in ancient times this place was the center of the Roman military camp, which developed into the Roman city of Aquincum. Despite its modest size, Old Obuda is charming. There are no crowds of tourists here, but there are cute houses under tiled roofs, next to which ordinary Hungarian life flows.
You can get to Old Obuda by train HEV, get off after one stop near the Arpad bridge (Szentlelek ter).
