Budapest - Hungary 🇭🇺
Budapest, capital of Hungary, and the biggest city in central and Eastern Europe.
Budapest is the combination of two cities: Buda (on the west site of the Danube river) and Pest (on the east side of the Danube river).
How to go there? ✈️
Besides this trip is a bit more expensive, it is worthy. You have to take a bus to Varsovia Modlin and take a plane. It would be more or less 70€ (330pln).
What to do? 🧐
1st: Fisherman’s Bastion
From this place, you have one of the best views of Budapest. Its seven pointy towers represent the seven Magyar chieftains who led their tribes to this area.
💡Nearby is the statue of St. Stephen, the first Hungarian king
2nd: Matthias Church ⛪️
The most colorful church you will see
3rd: Szenchenyi Chain Bridge 🌉
It was the first bridge to unite Buda and Pest. The stone lions guard the entrance of the bridge.
4th: The Great Market Hall
Looks like a train station, the market hall is the largest in Budapest.
5th: Danube promenade 🚶♂️🚶♀️
Enjoy the promenade and pay attention to the shoes on the Danube: memorial to the numerous Jews who were murdered in Budapest during N**i occupation.
💡Victims were instructed to take off theirs shoes before being shot, their bodies falling into the river.
6th: Szechenyi baths
A must to do! Relax in the healing and warm water 🫧
