“The Paris of the East”
Budapest, known as “The Paris of the
East”, sits majestically astride the
River Danube. The history of this charming
city, on which Magyars, Hapsburgs,
Ottomans, Romans, Soviets, even Genghis
Khan all had an influence, is brought
to life through the different styles
of architecture. Combine that with
the flamboyant swirl of gypsy violin
music or virtuoso piano-playing emanating
from the many cafés, bistros and restaurants
and the tastes of paprika and garlic
washed down by excellent local wines,
and one is immediately seduced by Budapest.
The Castle perched high above on the Buda side, the Chain Bridge joining Buda to Pest and the Parliament Building styled on Westminster, are just a few of the landmarks. Overall Budapest is a unique blend of spice, music, culture and heritage.
