ÃÂjpest (; , ) is the 4th District in Budapest, Hungary. It is located on the left bank of the Danube River.

In 1950, the town was unified with Budapest to form Greater Budapest. Since 1950, ÃÂjpest has been the 4th District of Budapest.

Isaac Lowy owned a shoe factory that he wanted to move to Pest but was unable to attain a settlement permit because he was Jewish. In 1835, he decided to create a new town where he would build the factory. North of Pest, there was an empty tract of land that was owned by the Károlyi nobles. Lowy bought the land; the deed included the right of religious freedom, the right to self-government, and the right to engage in business. By 1838, 13 Jewish families lived in ÃÂjpest; soon after, Christians began moving in.
