Today, the central part of the palace has been converted into the Budapest History Museum, the National Library, and the National Gallery. It was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. History The castle was first built in the 13th century under the direction of King Béla IV after the Mongol invasion. It subsequently endured destruction during the Ottoman occupation, multiple wars, and post-renovation devastation in World War II, making its history truly tumultuous. The palace we see today is its restored form after the war. Architectural styleThe architectural style combines Baroque and Gothic elements in a hybrid palace, grand in scale, with its main facade supported by Greek Corinthian columns. The exterior walls feature alternating red and white hues, while the Baroque-style green dome atop the facade is particularly striking. Visitor guide Passing through the lion gate into the courtyard, you can see the Matthias fountain, which depicts a hunting scene of King Matthias leading his entourage, with vivid postures of both the figures and the hounds. On the terrace overlooking the Danube stands the bronze statue of the mythical Turul bird, said to have guided the ancestors of the Magyars to this land, its talons clutching the "Sword of Attila." On one side of the terrace stands the equestrian statue of Prince Eugene, facing the Danube. At the entrance of the Budapest history museum, the bronze statues "War and peace" flanking the doorway symbolize war and peace through angelic figures, also worthy of close observation. The interior is also worth spending time on: the Hungarian National Gallery is renowned for its Gothic altarpieces, wood carvings, and other medieval artworks; the Budapest History Museum tells the story of the city and preserves restored medieval palace halls and chapels; the Széchényi National Library houses rare ancient books, including the former royal collection of King Matthias. After the visit, take a stroll on the Danube-facing viewing terrace, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the Chain Bridge, the Parliament Building, and the scenery along both banks of the Danube—especially enchanting at dusk when the lights come on. To ascend the hill, you can either walk up through the old town of Castle Hill or take the cable car from the end of the Chain Bridge for a leisurely ride up.Hungary · Budapest

This is a bridge across the Danube, connecting Buda and Pest, and a symbol and landmark of the merged city. The construction of the Chain Bridge began in 1839 and was completed in 1849, with a total length of 380 meters. When it was built, it was the bridge with the largest span in the world at that time. The bridge body was made of chains as the skeleton. There were pedestrian walkways on both sides of the bridge deck, and vehicles could pass in the middle. The bridgeheads standing on both sides of the strait are two tall and majestic stone triumphal arches. Huge steel cables are drawn out from the bridgehead, and the stretched bridge deck is suspended, outlining a strong curve. There are two stone lions guarding the bridge near the Pace area. The lion is resolute and majestic. It guards the Chain Bridge day and night like a patron saint. Walking on the Bridge Walking on the Chain Bridge, you can enjoy the charming scenery on both sides of Buda and Pest, the tranquil Danube, the magnificent Hungarian Parliament Building, and the dreamy Fisherman's Bastion. When you are in it, it is like stepping into a frozen historical picture. Whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, the scenery here is unique. The Buda end of the Chain Bridge has a vertical cable car from which you can ascend the Castle Hill. On the Pest side of the Chain Bridge is Széchenyi Istvan Square, where you can admire the palace-like buildings of the Hungarian Academy of Social Sciences and the Four Seasons Hotel. The Chain Bridge, a romantic place, is full of romance and literature when the lights are on. Under the light and shadow, the Chain Bridge is more mottled and has a hazy beauty. You can see many couples dating here. No wonder it has always been known as Budapest. One of the more romantic places, the famous "Love in Budapest" has also been filmed here many times. The Buda Palace on the Buda side is a great place to look over the Chain Bridge, from where you can enjoy a stunning view of the Reichstag, the Chain Bridge and the Danube. Every year on the Hungarian National Day, the Chain Bridge is only for pedestrians, and fireworks will bloom on the Danube River.Hungary · Budapest
Krakow's Rynek Glowny Central Square
The central square in Krakow can be called the largest medieval square in Europe. It is also a very exciting place in Krakow. It is warm and vibrant. Many people come to Krakow to experience the authentic local customs of Poland. The brick red Church of the Virgin Mary on the square is the symbol of Krakow, and when the sun shines, it emits a charming warm red. The textile hall with a white Renaissance building in the middle has now been converted into a shopping mall and a museum. The dazzling amber accessories, dishes, Polish dolls, gloves and sweaters in the shopping mall are the reasons why tourists love to stop. As the hour approaches, people walking and drinking coffee in the square will stop and pay their respects to the church - when the hour arrives, the small window at the top of the church bell tower will open and a golden trumpet sticks out , playing a piece of tune loudly, and after the end, the player will wave to the people below, so there will be whistles and applause from people in the square. The tradition of playing the trumpet is to commemorate the invasion of nomads from the Mongolian plateau in the 8th century, when an enemy soldier shot an arrow through the throat of the player at that time, and the sound stopped abruptly. To commemorate this soldier, until now, the horn sounded on the hour was abruptly terminated at that moment.Poland · Krakow

Liberty Bridge (Budapest)
Liberty Bridge (Budapest)is a well-known bridge in downtown Budapest spanning the Danube River, connecting the Buda bank on the west and the Pest bank on the east.

The overall outline of the bridge draws on the design features of chain bridges, with clean and smooth steel frame lines, while incorporating Art Nouveau decorative elements, giving the sturdy steel structure a delicate and elegant visual effect.

Buda Castle in Budapest, Hungary, is a majestic historical complex that crowns Castle Hill overlooking the Danube River. Once the royal palace of Hungarian kings, it now houses the Budapest History Museum, the Hungarian National Gallery, and the Széchenyi Library. The castle’s grand architecture, cobblestone courtyards, and panoramic views of the city and Chain Bridge make it a must-visit attraction. At night, the illuminated castle creates a breathtaking scene across the river. Visitors can explore its rich history, art collections, and nearby attractions like Matthias Church and Fisherman’s Bastion. Buda Castle perfectly embodies Hungary’s royal and cultural heritage.

I have to say that the Chain Bridge looks good from any angle. If you want to take pictures from the angles of Figures 1-3, stand on the platform on the way to Buda Castle. Figures 4-5 are at the bridge head, which is right next to the No. 105 bus stop. The Leo restaurant and bar on the top floor of the Clark Hotel has an excellent viewing position. You can see the Parliament Building from the left side, and the Chain Bridge and Buda Castle from the right side. Figure 6 is on the protruding platform on the left side facing the Buda Castle.

This is Europe's largest medieval square, covering 4 hectares. It is surrounded by colorful buildings, cafes, and street performers. The Sukiennice, the cloth hall in the center of the square, was built in the 13th century and was originally a textile market and one of Europe's important trading centers. Today, it is a shopping paradise for handicrafts and amber jewelry.

Apart from anything else, the color of this bridge alone is the winner!
The night view is just so-so. It is more beautiful during the day. Even with the light, the color is not very beautiful.
It is enough to look at the Capitol at night.
The Liberty Bridge is also very photogenic, but you have to walk to the middle of the red light to take better photos.
