The Pest-side pedestrian zone between the Chain Bridge and the Elizabeth Bridge is called Danube Promenade (Duna-korzó). The promenade is a popular spot among locals and tourists both. It is fringed with 5-star hotels (InterContinental, Marriott, Sofitel), restaurants, cafés, bars and casinos. Some say it has the best panorama of Buda with clear and gorgeous view of the Buda Castle, the Citadel, Gellért Hill and some of the bridges of Budapest - so just go on a stroll or sit down for a drink here and soak it all in. It is a great spot for enjoying the annual fireworks of 20 August. The Promenade is lined with arts masterpieces, like the "Kiskirálylány" (Princess) sitting on the railing, the building of the Vigadó and the statue of the statesman István Széchenyi by the MTA.

Széchenyi Chain Bridge is the world-famous landmark of Budapest and Hungary. It was named after one of the major supporters and facilitators of its construction. Chain Bridge was the first permanent bridge between Buda and Pest and also the first one across the Danube. It was built between 1839 and 1849, in the period when Budapest started to evolve from a dusty Central-European town to a vibrant metropolis and has symbolized the connection between East and West, progress and development. Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge with three bays and stone abutments designed by the Englishman William Tierney Clark

Gellért Hill (Gellért-hegy), a gemstone of Budapest, rises above the skyline of Buda with its 235 metres. Nestled between the Elizabeth Bridge and the Liberty Bridge, it its area is shared between the 1st and the 11th Districts. This marking sight of the cityscape of Budapest has been part of the World Heritage since 1987. Its most famous cave, Saint Ivan's Cave hides the Szent Gellért rock chapel. Gellért Hill is one of the top tourist attractions of the city thanks to the magnificent panorama from the top of its cliffs facing the Danube. You can climb the hill from two sides: take the stairs by the waterfall (only operating in the summer) at Elizabeth Bridge, or take the gradual, but somewhat longer pathway by the Gellért Bath. The latter passes a playground known for its slides, which is popular with children (and some adults as well).

The square, renamed in 1927 in honor of Lajos Kossuth was previously known by several names including; Országház tér ("Parliament Square") (1898–1927), Tömő tér or Stadt Schopper Platz in German ("Landfill Square")(1853–1898). This name recalls how the low-lying territory flanking the river, then outside the town of Pest, was filled with rubbish to raise the level of the ground. The first recorded name was Stadtischer Auswind Platz ("Unloading Square for the Ships") in 1820.

The Hungarian National Museum traces its foundation to 1802 when Count Ferenc Széchényi set up the National Széchényi Library. This would then be followed a year later by the donating of a mineral collection by Széchényi’s wife. This led to the creation of the Hungarian National Museum as a general and natural history museum, and not only a library
