The Budapest Metro (Hungarian: Budapesti metró) is the rapid transit system in the Hungarian capital Budapest. It is the oldest electrified underground railway system on the European continent and the second-oldest in the world predated only by the 1890 City & South London Railway (now part of the London Underground). Its iconic Line 1 completed in 1896 was declared a World Heritage Site in 2002.
