Buda and Pest on Our Own 2

Buda-Western Side of Danube

The Castle District is anchored by Buda Castle and The Church of Our Lady at Buda Castle.
The castle was home to Hungarian royalty in their day, now houses multiple national museums, and is being restored and preserved today (and always?). The resources devoted to it will allow it to remain a source of national pride.
The neighborhood that surrounds these two architectural anchors is more populated by traditional buildings than the parts of Pest we have seen so far, many of them residences and apartments and others restaurants, vendors, and bakeries, like Retesvar.
The Church of Our Lady is notable to us for its intricately tiled roofs and spires. Bonus points for those of you who can see Starbucks lurking nearby. And doesn't every scene need its own falconer?Leggi altro
