This smile wooden statue is in fact a memorial of a very sad event. Two years ago on the 20th of August celebration at 9:00pm a huge storm has arrived over Budapest. Exactly this is the time when the firework has started and more then 1 million people watched it along the Danube Bank. Because of the heavy storm and the panic it occured, 4 people has died.

A Hotel right at the Danube. I am sure if the inside of it looks good, but from the outside, this building is like the symbol of the ’80s to me. Don’t worry! Retro is a fashion:)

When you visit Hungary do not hope that you will eat light foods. Lángos (fried dough) is one of our national food available mostly at old fashioned markets. My favorite is the sajtos-tejfölös (with chees and sour cream) with garlic.
Read more about Lángos on Nora’s blog.

Again and again. Since months the Budai Alsórakpart is closed due to a construction. This one is about a new sewage disposal system which hopefully will make the Danube cleaner.
