This infographic provides an overview of things to know about Budapest, including sites and attractions as well as average prices. The use of clear subheads enhances the usability of this piece, as do the consistent color palette and typeface. On the other hand, the visual conflict between icon, line illustration, and photographs might prove distracting for a reader. In the content, including standard prices is a nice touch, as it helps set a reader's expectations for price points and conversion rates. It might have been helpful to note when those conversions were made, as the numbers do shift based on the economy. Also, ensuring consistency throughout as to the currencies used (HUF, £, $) would help to avoid any confusion for the reader. There's a good start to this infographic—it just needs a bit of fine-tuning. We'd give this a D.
