Budapest to ban cars from the Danube promenade this summer

Following the lead of Paris, Vienna and other major European capitals, Budapest is integrating the river back into city life. Key to this long-term goal has been urban action group Valyo. This is the team behind the most striking example of this undertaking, the Szabihíd picnics that turn Liberty Bridge into an alfresco communal recreation zone during July.

It is hoped that the car-free scheme for the Dunakorzó, the downtown Danube promenade lined with five-star hotels and restaurant terraces, will coincide with these popular events.
