Budapest seems to be the right place for shopping because of all the huge shopping malls that appeared here recently (almost 372 thousand square meters of shopping-center space was built in Budapest since 1996). If you like street-shopping, you can stroll along Váci utca (featuring the global brands) or Nagy körút (the city's larger ring road). You will also see a lot of small shops in side streets that sell local clothing or shoes, or specialize in this or that merchandise.
