Budapest’s Advent Basilica is a show‑stopper: projections animate the grand façade nightly while a compact village of stalls serves up chimney cake, stuffed cabbage and warming mulled wine.
The square sits just off Andrássy út and a short walk from Deák Ferenc tér metro hub, making it one of the most convenient markets to reach. With dates confirmed from 14 November to New Year’s Day, you can enjoy the build‑up to Christmas and the city’s lively year‑end atmosphere in one trip.
