The Inner City is situated on the east bank of the river
Danube. Until 1949 it was the
4th district of the town. Since then it has largely comprised the
5th district and the
6th district. The border of the city from the east follows the line of the old
city walls, which is the
Small Boulevard; its sections are (
Charles Boulevard), (
Museum Boulevard) and (
Vámház Boulevard). The border from the west is the river Danube itself. A colloquial definition of inner city (or city centre, both with lower case letters) also exists according to which the city centre of Budapest, in a broader sense, is bordered by the
Grand Boulevard on Pest side of the city. In
Buda (if it is also included), it is bordered by the continuation of Grand Boulevard by
Margit körút (Margaret Boulevard),
Krisztina körút (Christina Boulevard),
Budaörsi út (
Budaörsi Street) and
Bocskai út (Bocskai Street). So the wider area comprises the whole 5th district and some parts of the
6th,
7th,
8th,
9th, and the
13th districts on the Pest side, while also certain parts of the
1st.,
2nd,
11th, and the
12th. districts on the Buda side. );
