Budapest's biggest covered market, open since 1897. Downstairs, paprika and salami hang from the stalls; upstairs, a narrow gallery is lined with counters selling lángos, goulash and sausages. Take a fried lángos piled with sour cream and cheese and eat it standing up. The view down over the market hall from the railing is half the point.
