Enjoy a romantic picnic amongst the ruins. There are spaces to spread out within the ruins or under the trees.
Description:
This museum has been waiting 1900 years for your visit. You will not hear anyone saying "Hail Caesar" here, but the remains of this Roman settlement and military camp with a governor's palace are more than impressive. It appears to be on the small side from the outer fence, but once you enter, you will realize how extensive it is. To reach it, from the Batthány tér metro station, take the Szentendre HÉV (suburban train) to the Aquincum stop. If you have a transportation pass, you do not need any additional tickets for the HÉV. When you get off of the train, cross the street and walk back in the direction you just came. The museum is one block away.
