This was part of Central Europe - Day 3 🇭🇺 🔗.

I joined the Free Budapest Walk at 10:30 AM and we visited Elizabeth Square and saw the Budapest Eye. We also saw Francis Square.

Next we walked to the St. Stephen’s Basilica, a vast cupola-topped Roman Catholic place of worship, built from 1851 to 1905.

We saw the Hungarian Academy of Sciences as we made our way to the waterfront and could see Castle Hill across the river.

We crossed the Széchenyi Chain Bridge into Buda and could see the Buda Castle up in the background.

We started our ascent up Castle Hill along Király lépcső and saw nice views of the Danube River and Pest on the other side.

At the top we saw the Sándor Palace and the Hadik András lovasszobra monument.

We walked onwards to see the Holy Trinity Statue and the Matthias Church.

Our last stop was the Fisherman’s Bastion, a 19th-century fortress with turreted lookout towers which had nice views of the Hungarian Parliament Building.
