Budapest, the capital of Hungary is considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Oh boy, I'd love to visit that place someday. Sites worth visiting include Matthias Church, Buda Castle(Castle Quarter), St. Stephen's Basilica and the Danube Promenade. The city is home to the largest synagogue in Europe (Great Synagogue), the largest medicinal bath in Europe (Szechenyi Medicinal Bath) and the third largest Parliament Building in the world, once the largest in the world. The third largest church in Europe (Esztergom Basilica) and the second largest Baroque castle in the world (Godollo) are in the vicinity.Since it is located in Europe, hotels can be pretty expensive. If you're headed to Budapest, Hungary, skip the hotels and rent an apartment. Budapest apartments are cheaper and

La formazione di questa città, con uno dei più bei panorami del mondo, non è stata casuale. Il Danubio, che la traversa, permette un ottimo passaggio, soprattutto vicino al monte Gellért, e la zona era ben adatta alla difesa e all’insediamento grazie ai suoi monti. Un tempo, nel IV. e III. secolo a.C., c’erano delle tribù eravische di alta civiltà a vivere sul monte Gellért, lavoravano il ferro, decoravano la ceramica fatta da loro stessi, e coniavano anche moneta. L’Impero Romano fece costruire la propria città, Aquincum, sul territorio dell’Óbuda di oggi, inoltre, è qui che stazionavano le legioni entro la limes, cioè l’enorme linea di difesa lungo il Danubio. Anche gli ungheresi, che conquistarono la patria, lo trovavano un territorio di grande importanza strategic

The long awaited report from Budapest, Hungary is finally here. In the past few days we've been adding the recently visited bookstores in Budapest, but we figure all of them deserve another mention as a part of this report - sort of a way to circle Budapest as a bookstore rich city which deserves a special mention in our Guide.We should thus start chronologically, with Red Bus Bookstore which we've found a long time (ok, prehaps not AS long) before Bookstore Guide had been conceived. It all happened somewhere in June last year while we were wandering about Budapest. Unfortunately, the bookstore was closed at the time of our discovery (either it was Sunday or past 6pm, or perhaps both) but we made sure we came back a couple of months later and we were left breathless both by the prices and

Where? Budapest, HungaryVisited: February 2008This is the last bookstore we visited during our stay in Budapest. Bestsellers is an exclusively foreign language bookstore and it only stocks new books.The stock of Bestsellers amounts to more than 10 thousand titles. One part of the store is reserved for a wide offer of magazines and newspapers in English and partly in French. We also appreciated the selection of books in the humanities section, which contains titles on psychology, cultural studies, philosophy, politics, international relations, religion or sociology. There also is a history section, with a special focus on Hungarian history, but also on the Central European region in general and the Balkans. The bookstore stocks numerous books by Hungarian authors, which were translated into

Where? Budapest, HungaryVisited: February 2008This is another bookstore we stumbled upon during our visit to Budapest. Unlike all the other bookstores in the city, the D2K bookstore has a very narrowly defined field of interest. It focuses uniquely on books related to design.First of all, the owners of this bookstore deserve praise for being brave enough and starting a project like this. Since no other people entered the bookstore during our visit, we assume that D2K probably serves the needs of a smaller number of specific customers. However, this is not due to a lack of interesting titles on the shelves, but probably also to the other negative factor in play - the location of the store.Their growing collection currently comprises of several hundred titles and each one of them is a visual

Where? Budapest, HungaryVisited: February, 2008This bookstore specializes in English books only and the books themselves are very neatly organized by sections in two large rooms of the bookstore. It seemed to us that their focus were books on art and architecture but these are accompanied by a great number of fiction books (for example, there was a huge choice on particular writers such as Rushdie), children's books and travel guides. We tried finding more information on the bookstore itself but since it is probably a recently opened bookstore, their website is still under construction. The best way to find out more about the bookstore is to visit it by yourselves. We're sure you won't be disappointed, especially if you are looking for a particular book because, just judging by the number

Where? Budapest, HungaryVisited: February 2008This bookstore turned out to be a very positive surprise of our Budapest trip. Although it is mostly referred to as a primarily internet based bookstore, this is a huge understatement. Bookstation is a bookstore offering a mixture of carefully selected new books (mostly remainder) and loads of second hand books. It focuses uniquely on books in foreign languages, with the English section being the most prominent, but it also has a considerable German, French and Spanish section. Especially the French section deserves to be mentioned, since such a selection of second hand French books at such prices is very rare in non-francophone parts of Europe.All in all, the Bookstation is the home of more than 30 thousand titles. The prices of the second han

One of the news stories on our intranet has a highly ambiguous headline:Diligent Bankers' present in BudapestBefore you read on, I invite you to guess the main thrust of the story using only the headline as guidance. If it helps (which it doesn't), the headline was accompanied by a picture of a smiling woman.Ready? OK, here are my own wrong guesses and then the correct answer:At first I thought the headline might be referring to a gift given to or by a group of bankers. But why are they diligent? And why do they deserve a capped-up 'B'? Perhaps there is an organisation called 'Diligent Bankers'...My second interpretation was that the same group of bankers (or organisation) is simply present in Budapest, for some unknown reason. And of course, that would fail to explain the apostrophe.Only

Where? Budapest, HungaryRecommended by: Tünde HusanyicaTünde said: "Last week I visited Budapest, and I found a very nice, little secondhand bookstore. It's Treehugger Dan's Bookstore and Cafe."The motto of this bookstore is: "The local bookstore with a global conscience." And yes indeed, this place seems to be a lot more than a regular bookstore. Treehugger Dan's Bookstore and Cafe reflects two passions of its founder and owner Daniel Swartz - environment and books. The combination of these two lead to the creation of this unique bookstore in Budapest. The bookstore offers a wide selection of well over 4000 second-hand English paperbacks. Besides fiction books, you can find non-fiction titles from many different fields such as environment, gender studies, politics, history, sociology, p

Das kulturelle Leben Budapests haben nicht nur die Künstler und Architekten geprägt. Was wäre die Stadt ohne den Czárdás und die musikalischen Genies, die das ungarische und österreichische Leben mit Musik leichter machten. Einer dieser Genies war Ferenc Liszt (1811 - 1886), der seine letzten sechs Lebensjahre in Budapest verbrachte und hier in einem kleinen Appartment in der Alten Musikakademie

As I mentioned in the Hungarian GP Preview the Red Bull organized their show in Budapest streets again.

Here are 2 short amateur videos from the event taken at 2 different locations.

Today we had a little bit more relaxed day than usual - and boy we needed that! The master class has been so intensive that there practically has been no free time. Professor Simonov is so demanding that after hearing the works to be conducted at the next session, everyone disappears to their rooms to nicely make sure they do a decent job next day on the podium... The repertoire for today was the same as yesterday: Schone Melusine by Mendelssohn, Der Schauspieldirektor overture of Mozart, Coriolan by Beethoven, Il Matrimonio Segreta by Cimarosa, and some Rossini and Schubert overtures too. I noticed an interesting thing which happens when you have to listen to the same repertoire performed over and over again: The Coriolan overture just becomes more and more interesting by each and every listening! It is such a marvellously constructed piece that every time you hear new things and appreciate the old things more. Cimarosa also stays really charming even after sixth hearing. I cannot say

4 cose curiose che ho notato nella capitale ungherese. 1 - Il latte Sole lo bevevo da bambino. Erano 20 anni che non lo vedevo più. Lì sembra che vada ancora molto forte. 2 -Squisito il pollo con bacon e pesche che ho avuto modo di assaggiare in un risporante tipico. Accompagnato da patate prima lessate e poi arrostite (con la buccia) e con una salsa al formaggio e barbecue. Eccellente. Prezzo 4 euro.3 - Se in Italia ci stupiamo che splendide chiese rimangano chiuse per mancanza di denaro, a Budapest succede di peggio. Antichi templi diventano bar (e nemmeno raffinati). Così capita di vedere un frigo con i gelati davanti allo splendido portale. 4 - Tutti a pensar male! E' solo il seggiolino di un gioco per bambini nel parco di Nepliget! :)

8 giorni a Budapest sono stati sufficienti per conoscere una città indubbiamente suggestiva e, al contrario di quanto ci si aspetti, ordinatissima, pulita, sicura. E la vita notturna rappresenta una parte importante. Anche qui Gyros, Kebab, supermercati e casinò sono aperti 7 giorni su 7 24 ore su 24. E le discoteche non mancano. Molto cordiali e disponibili gli ungheresi. Prezzi incredibilmente bassi. Meta stra-consigliata.Cliccando su ogni singola foto potete vederla ingrandita.

Margaret Island (Margitsziget) is a 2.5 km long island in the middle of the Danube in central Budapest, between the two city parts, Buda and Pest. Margaret Island is one of the most beautiful open spaces in the city. In contrast to similar islands in other great cities, Margitsziget has not been built over, but has remained a huge park in the heart of Budapest. It is a popular recreational area

Andrassy Avenue is part of the World Heritage. It is one of the most representative streets in Hungary and one of Budapest very few avenues. Heroes' Square lies at the end of Andrassy Avenue.

Oktogon derives its name from its shape, which is that of an octagon (a

The Budapest Metro consists of three lines. Line 4 is under construction. There are also plans for Budapest Metro Line 5. The line 1 of Budapest Metro is the oldest subway of the continental Europe. It was inagurated in 1896, the year of millennium. Line 2 was built from 1950 to 1963 and is currently under major reconstructions. Among others, stations are renovated. The renovation will have

Buda Castle, which is the part of the Budapest World Heritage Site since 1987, was built in the 14th century by Prince Stephen. King Sigismund Luxemburg of Hungary greatly enlarged the palace between 1410 and 1420. Unfortunately, serious damage was caused by Hasburgs, and Turkish. Finally, Buda Castle was destroyed in the great siege of 1686 when Buda was captured by the allied Christian forces.

Budapest is one of the most beautiful capitals of the world. There is no other capital city which combines beautiful buildings, World Heritages, spas, cultural events, mountains, forests, pubs, discos, spicy nightlife, pleasant weather, etc. Most tourists fall in love with the city at first sight. However, Budapest, as any other city has some parts which shouldn't and which should never seen by

A Hungarian perspective.Despite the strong and often shameful subject matter, Sunshine is a film for which Hungarians can be really proud. Directed by István Szabó, the epic spans generations and covers weighty topics such as history, religion, roots, love, hatred and prejudice. It is the first film for a long while to earn the title of a truly great work of cinema....Gustav (James Frain), the left-wing conscience of the story, is in love with his adopted sister Vali who falls for Ignác (Fiennes). Vali's character is played by the talented actress Jennifer Ehle (This year's love, Wilde), her real life mother actress Rosemary Harris plays Vali in later life.Although the three characters Ignác, son Ádám and grandson Iván are all played by Fiennes, it seems like Vali is at the real core of the film. Her character spans the generations, and as a photographer she observes the events of history, both personal and the larger east European tragedy.
