Timeline
18:40
Grab an ice cream or pastry at Aida. It is a short walk from the cathedral and perfect for a pre-sunset treat.
18:55
Head to St Elizabeth's Cathedral. The tower is open until 17:00, so you can climb up for a view of the city waking up for the evening, or simply admire the exterior architecture as the light begins to change.
19:25
Stand in the square facing west. At sunset, the sun sets toward the WNW, casting a final golden glow on the cathedral's facade and the surrounding historic buildings.
20:05
Walk south to Kasárne Kulturpark. This renovated cultural center in the old barracks is a great place to end the evening, with space to relax and enjoy the post-sunset atmosphere.
