Timeline

  1. 17:12

    Pizza Sziget

    Grab a quick slice of pizza to go. Pizza Sziget is just a short walk from the mansion and stays open until 21:00, so you have plenty of time before the evening rush.

  2. 17:42

    Palace Garden

    Head into the Palace Garden. This protected green space surrounds the Sajnovics Mansion and offers a quiet, open view toward the west. The walk from the pizza place is only four minutes, leaving you enough time to find a good spot in the grass or on a bench.

  3. 17:57

    Palace Garden

    The sun sets at 17:57, casting a warm glow over the Baroque and Romantic architecture of the mansion. The light fades quickly after this point, but the silhouette of the building against the darkening sky is the highlight.

  4. 18:57

    Tordasi Csárda

    Walk fourteen minutes from the garden to Tordasi Csárda for dinner. This traditional restaurant is open until 21:00 on weekdays and weekends, making it the perfect end to an evening that started with the sunset. The 14-minute walk allows the evening chill to settle in before you enter the warm interior.

Local tip

The Palace Garden is large, so arrive a bit early to find a spot with a clear western view. Tordasi Csárda is a traditional spot, so expect a cozy, rustic atmosphere rather than a modern lounge.
