Our day on our own in Budapest,  we wanted to do this palace, so we booked our own tour (@ 1/3 the cost of the Viking excursion) worth Get your guide.   It was a favorite of the Austra-Hungarian Queen Elizabeth,  with of Emperor Franz Joseph, known as Sisi.  We have visited her palace in Vienna, Austria, Schöenbrun.

We learned it was much more than that,  a Palace of an aristrocratic family before Sisi and Franz Joseph owned it, the Andrassy family,  who were prominant in the development of the Austria Hungarian dynasty and a famous Budapest family.
