The fourth district of the Hungarian capital Budapest is ( German: Neu- Pest ) also called Újpest. Also, a neighborhood in the district called Újpest. The district is located on the left bank of the Danube. The name Újpest ( New Pest) was chosen because the formerly independent village was founded in 1840 on the border of the then also independent city of Pest. Újpest was more than six decades an independent town and in 1907 was raised to town. In 1950, the city was incorporated into Budapest and has since formed the fourth district of the city.
