=== Islands === [[File:Girl in the Margit-sziget Garden (5978988972).jpg|thumb|right|Park on [[Margaret Island]]]] [[File:Margitsziget 2018-ban - légi fotó.jpg|thumb|right|Aerial panorama with [[Margaret Island]]]] [[File:Budapest Széchenyi Baths R01.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.13|[[Széchenyi Medicinal Bath|Széchenyi Thermal Bath]] in the [[City Park (Budapest)|City Park]]]] [[File:Budapest Gellértbad 2.JPG|thumb|right|Gate of the Gellért Spa]] A number of islands can be found on the Danube in Budapest: * [[Margaret Island]] ({{langx|hu|Margit-sziget}} {{IPA|hu|ˈmɒrɡit.siɡɛt|}}) is a {{convert|2.5|km|mi|1|abbr=on}} long island and {{convert|0.965|km2|acre}} in area. The island mostly consists of a park and is a popular recreational area for tourists and locals alike. The island lies between Margaret Bridge (south) and Árpád Bridge (north). Dance clubs, swimming pools, an [[Water park|aqua park]], athletic and fitness centres, bicycle and running tracks can be found around the Island. During the day the island is occupied by people doing sports, or just resting. * [[Csepel Island]] ({{langx|hu|Csepel-sziget}} {{IPA|hu|ˈt͡ʃɛpɛlsiɡɛt|}}) is the largest island of the River Danube in Hungary. It is {{convert|48|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long; its width is {{convert|6|to|8|km|0|abbr=on}} and its area comprises {{convert|257|km2|sqmi|0|abbr=on}}. However, only the northern tip of the island is inside the city limits. * [[Hajógyári Island]] ({{langx|hu|Hajógyári-sziget}} {{IPA|hu|ˈhɒjoːɟaːrisiɡɛt|}}), also known as Óbuda Island ({{langx|hu|Óbudai-sziget}}), is a human-made island located in the third district. This island hosts many activities such as: wake-boarding, jet-skiing during the day, and [[Nightclub|dance clubs]] during the night. This is the island where the famous [[Sziget Festival]] takes place, hosting hundreds of performances per year. Around 400,000 visitors attended the last festival. Many building projects are taking place to make this island into one of the biggest entertainment centres of Europe. The plan is to build [[apartment building]]s, hotels, casinos and a marina. * {{ill|Molnár Island|hu|Molnár-sziget}} ({{langx|hu|Molnár-sziget}}) is an island in the channel of the Danube that separates Csepel Island from the east bank of the river. The islands of {{ill|Palotai Island|hu|Palotai-sziget}}, {{ill|Nép Island|hu|Népsziget}}, and {{ill|Háros Island|hu|Háros-sziget}} also formerly existed within the city, but have been joined to the mainland. The {{ill|Ínség Rock|hu|Ínség-szikla}} ({{langx|hu|Ínség-szikla}}) is a [[reef]] in the Danube close to the shore under the [[Gellért Hill]]. It is only exposed during drought periods when the river level is very low. Just outside the city boundary to the north lies the large [[Szentendre Island]] ({{langx|hu|Szentendrei-sziget}}) and the much smaller [[Lupa Island (Hungary)|Lupa Island]] ({{langx|hu|Lupa-sziget}}).
