It is considered to be one of the most vibrant and wonderful cities in Europe where the charm of old times and the characteristics of cosmopolitan living are blended. The broad river Danube runs through the middle of this two-million metropolis, cutting across the diverse landscapes of hilly Buda and low-lying Pest.

The two sides, Buda and Pest, stretching along the banks of the Danube, represent two different characters of the city. Suburban Buda and its historic castle district offer the experience of medieval streets and houses, museums, caves and Roman ruins while the dynamic Pest side hosts the largest parliament building in Europe, picturesque riverside promenades, flea markets, bookstores, antique stores and café houses.

The city’s cultural life is extremely diverse with a rich variety of musical venues, concerts, art events and theaters. With its museums and galleries, churches and synagogues, palaces and other historic buildings, numerous turkish baths and swimming pools the city offers many various ways of spending your time here in a way that best suits your needs and preferences.

We feel that hosting the largest European forum for transgender rights and activism in Budapest is an important step in building new alliances between Eastern and Western Europe. It is an excellent opportunity to bring together activists from different kinds of areas in a slightly different atmosphere than usually.

This time, our host organization is TransVanilla.
