Every December, trams in Budapest get dressed up for Christmas, certain routes illuminated on different days. Our star photographer Sándor Csudai took the scenic number 2 along the Danube and captured these wonderfully festive scenes amid urban whizz.

Budapest’s Christmas trams will be running until Epiphany on 6 January, zipping to the distant Buda hills, far-flung Újpest and remote Pestszentlőrinc, out towards the airport.


Our photographer Sándor Csudai stuck with good old tram 2, which hugs the Danube on the Pest side, passing Budapest’s most romantic bridges. Here’s what he managed to capture – and to check the schedule to know which trams are running when, see here.
