Play chess while soaking in one of the indoor/outdoor 15 spring-fed thermal pools or go for a swim in one of the 3 swimming pools in the largest medicinal bath in Budapest (one of the largest in all of Europe). Built in 1913, Széchenyi was the first bath in Pest and is arguably the most decadent. Soaks in the baths are considered medical treatment and are often prescribed by doctors giving patients a reduced price. Located in City Park, walk outside the bath and grab some mulled wine and grilled corn on your way to the largest outdoor ice skating rink in Europe, hop on the 1st subway system in Europe (line 1, yellow) or take a stroll down Andrássy Utça.
1146 Budapest, Állatkerti körút 9-11

If you’re interested in Cold War propaganda and cultural handicrafts, the 30,000 (about $1.35) dong fee is well worth it. The museum is also walking distance from Hoan Kiem Lake and plenty of restaurants.

As the name suggests, Monkey Hill is a delightful hike up to a breathtaking viewpoint of Phuket Town, the Andaman Sea, and the surrounding islands. Oh, and did we mention there are monkeys? Put on your workout gear and power-walk to the top with the locals or stop at the lookout cafes for a coffee and snack and check out the temple. For some free views, nature, and photo ops, Monkey Hill is a fantastic way to spend a few hours, right in the heart of Phuket Town.
