Inner City (Budapest)

Inner City (; ) the central part of Budapest. It is more or less equivalent with the historic old town of Pest.
Location.
The Inner City is situated on the left bank of the river Danube. Until 1949 it was the "4th district" of the town. Since then it has largely comprised the 5th district and the 6th district. The border of the city from the east follows the line of the old city walls, which is the Small Boulevard; its sections are ("Charles Boulevard"), ("Museum Boulevard") and ("Vámház Boulevard"). The border from the west is the river Danube itself.
A colloquial definition of inner city (or city centre, both with lower case letters) also exists according to which the city centre of Budapest in a broader sense is bordered by the Grand Boulevard on Pest side of the city. In Buda (if it is also included), it is bordered by the continuation of Grand Boulevard by "Margit körút (Margaret Boulevard)", "Krisztina körút (Christina Boulevard)", "Budaörsi út" ("Budaörsi Street") and "Bocskai út (Bocskai Street)." So the wider area comprises the whole 5th district and some parts of the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, and the 13th districts on the Pest side, while also certain parts of the 1st., 2nd, 11th, and the 12th. districts on the Buda side.
