Budapest

 

        HOME

 

Two weeks after returning from the Baltics and continuing our theme of eastern Europe, we headed off to Budapest for the weekend with a couple of friends, Kate & Stu.  Budapest is another amazing city, divided in two by the River Danube, with the old town of Buda on one side, and the more modern Pest on the other.

Basilica of St Stephen.  Within is the mummified hand of St Stephen himself, on display in a little glass cabinet.

 

 

Looking up inside the dome.

 

 

 

 

 

Houses of Parliament.  Very similar style to the one in London.

      In case you weren’t sure, we thought the trams were pretty cool…
