Houses of Parliament Budapest


Budapest is the nostalgic capital of Hungary. It is formed of two parts. “Buda” and “Pest”. They are dissected by the River Danube. “Pest” is a lowland area, and “Buda” the highland area. They came as one after 1873. The Szechenyi Chain Bridge joins both parts. The city’s population is 1.75 million, making it the 10th largest city in the European Union. It is both a city and a county. The metropolitan area of Budapest contains 33% of Hungary’s population, which highlights its importance in the region.

Budapest has ad the influence of many cultures. Starting with the Celtics, then the Romans, the Mongols, the Ottoman rule, and the grand Austro-Hungarian Empire. At that time Budapest was the co-capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, sharing it with Vienna. This collaboration lasted until the end of the  first World War in 1918.

Castle Hill is on the Buda side of Budapest. Use the funicular tram to go up Castle Hill to reach Buda’s old town area. On top of the hill is the 13th Century Buda Castle. Destroyed during World War II, it has gone under renovation to bring its splendour back to life. Also in the main square of the castle is Matthias Church. This was used for major events such as coronations of Hungarian kings. Moreover in this area you can find the Budapest History Museum which explains Budapest’s rich history from the Roman era onwards.

The top attraction of Budapest is the Hungarian Parliament Building. Especially beautiful at night, it can be the high spot of a cruise on the Danube. With its neo-Gothic structure, its architecture was based on the British Houses of Parliament. A true landmark of the city.

Close by is a poignant memorial called “Shoes on the Danube”. It is a holocaust memorial consisting of shoes in memory of those shot into the Danube by the Nazi regime. It is said that the Danube turned red with blood during those horrific times.

Other buildings of note include the Halaszbastya. Similar to Disneyland, this building has towers and turrets pointing to the sky in true fairy tale fashion. It was built to commemorate the Hungarian millennium in the 19th Century. In addition visit St. Stephen’s Basilica (Szent Istvan Bazilika). It is huge, truly huge. The parish church completed in 1905 can hold up to 8500 people. Its beauty is highlighted with its neo-Renaissance dome.

For a panoramic view of the Danube, go to Gellert Hill. Furthermore the Citadella and Statue of Liberty are in this area.
