The part of Budapest city now known is Obuda is the site of the principal town of the Roman province of Pannonia.
The frontier of the Roman Empire ran along the line of the Danube River, and Budapest’s 2000 years old forerunner was called Aquincum. It was an important military center, but a civilian town of merchants and artists also grew up around it. Remains of the military amphitheatre can be seen at Obuda and a mile further on ruins of the streets of the civilian town of its houses.
Now there is the aquincum museum where you can see the ruins of the Roman Aquincum.
