Many visitors to Budapest come to see her beau-
          tiful architecture, the romantic Castle District (Vár-
          negyed), and the baths and spas that pamper the

          senses. Others come to enjoy music festivals, au-
          thentic cuisine, and cultural events that enrich the
          spirit. Very few, however, come to Budapest in the
          quest for active pursuits, because the city is not ad-
          vertised as a Mecca for adrenaline junkies.
