Buda Castle is one of the places that would be considered a must see while on a trip to Budapest. It is full of history and a great place to visit, if not only for its sheer beauty. Another thing Budapest is famous for is its churches, such as the Basilica of St Stephen. This cathedral took 50 years to build mostly because of the collapsing of the dome because of storm. It was eventually completed in the year 1905. There a guided tours in English daily and are full of the history of the cathedral.
The Chain Bridge or Széchenyi lánchíd named after count Széchenyi who was the one who started to build the bridge. He then passed the project over to Tierney Clark and Adam Clark who had experience in the building bridges on the River Thames previous to that. |
