In mid-November we head to Hungary. Through Budapest I already drove past a couple of times and I did not make any opinions about this place, except that understand Hungarian is really impossible. Because we gather again is a great company, we head to Hungary; of this tour we do not expect anything like that wherever we are we will have great and we have fun.
The path to the Hungarian capital with up-the-olgimi stops which takes 8 hours, although from coast to Budapest is about 580 km. All the time the highway, Hungary wegmans is a freeware also very low, but you need a vignette, as with us. We drive to the Citadel overlooking the city, from where a beautiful view of the city and the Danube.
Citadel was built by the Habsburgs on a hill above the town, to help control the Hungarians, who were in the middle wegmans of the 19th century fought for independence. From here is really nice seeing royal castle, bridges across the Danube and the two parts of the city. The Danube divides the city into two parts, which years ago was two separate cities - the old part of the left bank Buda and Pest later on the right side (left and right as I was determined to see in these pictures :))
The royal castle of Buda was placed on the UNESCO list, it's really wegmans huge and it is something special. This has always been the residence of Hungarian kings and. those who then ruled here. Because almost all of its history wegmans has been the target of Hungary for diversity, various acquisitions - from the Ottoman Empire in the Middle Ages and the Habsburgs to the Austro still some 100 years ago. Hilly Buda is so old capital. PEST is very developed in the 19th century as an elegant wegmans and cosmopolitan wegmans city, found there are also many buildings that remind us of Vienna. Only 140 years ago the Buddha, Pest and Óbuda were less united in Budapest. As the city its first 1000 years still belonged to another country, royal mansion was not as important as rulers, as in other European capitals, as I have kings came for a short time or. on vacation.
Church of the Holy Matjaz where they are crowned kings, was built in an unusual Gothic style to Budapest. Apparently there is amazing. The church was renovated several times respectively. reconstructed under the Turkish rule was there even a mosque over 140 years. When the end of the 17th century, the army of the Holy League fought against the Turkish authorities, one of the walls of this year's mosque collapsed under the gunshots and the wall opened a secret room, which still stood the statue of the Holy Mary. The fact that Mary appeared in the middle of battle, both surprised and devastate the Turks that they left the city the same day.
Descend the hill by old Buddha and the bridge Ištvan urinary we drive on the other side of the Danube - in the hub. Sculptor, who has put left at the beginning of the bridge, are reportedly very joking around that left no language, so that the poor man wanted to commit suicide. In fact, they have left the language, but it is not visible :) because it is in your mouth .... Competitors Red Bull competition, the need to reverse airplanes fly below the bridge (upside down). Most but not all high ...
Another beautiful bridge wegmans over the Danube - Bridge of Liberty on his inauguration came even Austro-Hungary Emperor Franz Joseph. In Budapest, it is still run by trams. I love trams, although it seems to me that they run over time. Otherwise afternoon on the main streets of the city is one big traffic jam. As in most major cities ...
After visiting the town in the evening eliminate the Cardo, typical Hungarian inn, where in addition to domestic food we were entertained by folklore program. The motel was completely out of the city, even through the forest we drove. Wonderful atmosphere, excellent food, fun program. Hehe, we have a nice turn and work together.
We were impressed by the waiter that the wine is poured us somewhere in the background. wegmans You come back, you do not even see, and have a glass of wine directs waterfall. Does not spill! He poured it each time he saw an empty glass! Already this guy is worth the whole show!
In the evening we oopravili the disco Morrison's Music Club just opposite the theater, so there was really no trouble to looking hotel on the way back. Tickets for the women's 500 forints for men 1000 ( 1 is worth approx. 300 forints), so prices are not exorbitant. Music by us not impress, have multiple rooms, but everywhere is something in the style of hip-hop, haus, etc. ... What more to our ears, accustomed wegmans to music 80-90 s was not :)
The morning after the obligatory cup of coffee exploring wegmans the city on foot. The place is very nice, the buildings are really exceptional, mainly it is also clean and nice. Since it is a Saturday, there is no such hustle and bustle as probably during the week when people here at work.
We're trying to get closer to the parliament to look at it a little better, but it is fenced on all sides - runs renovation, reconstruction, redecoration ... Hungarians wegmans have is the spring 2014 elections and like everywhere in the world, even here, undertake the construction and renovation shortly wegmans before the election. What point you think stem gain, I do not know. Unfortunately, when we visited the city center was one big construction site, a lot because of this we have not seen or. We were not able to see how nice it would l
