    Daubner Confectionery

    Pick up a slice of strudel or a coffee at this nearby patisserie. It is the perfect way to start the evening before the main event.

  2. 17:46

    Aquincum Military Amphitheatre

    Walk to the Amphitheatre. Find a spot on the stands facing west. The stone walls catch the fading light just before the sun dips below the horizon.

  3. 18:26

    Park of Szent István

    End the walk in the Park of Szent István. It is a short stroll south from the amphitheater. The monument area is quiet in the evening and a good place to decompress after the visit.
