The old funicular of the 19th century leads to the Buda Castle Hill where you can explore the city from atop and make beautiful panoramic shots.
How to ride on the old funicular in Budapest
You can reach the Castle Hill in several ways, including both by foot and by bus. But the most unusual way is to take a ride on the cable car of the 19th century, which departs every 10 minutes from Clark Adam Square (Clark Adam ter).

It will lift you up to the mountains in just one minute, so you'll have some time to explore the surrounding area from atop or take a selfie :)
