Romas in Hungary

Roma man

Roma people experience discrimination in Hungary in almost every dimenzion of life. The situation is even worse in the country side in the eastern and norhtern part of the country far away from Budapest. I dedicate this post to support romas in Hungary. Read more in the BBC’s report.

The reconstructed Liberty bridge

Liberty bridge - Budapest

The more I see the “new” Liberty Bridge (Szabadság híd) the more I like it. Especially at night it is very attracive with these amazing lights.

Lost in transition

Budapest

This is not a village. Its still Budapest. Rare to see this special mood of old times with a chestnut tree nowdays. This place in Hűvösvölgy is under reconstruction so soon this atmosphere will be disappearing, too.

The chain bridge from a distance

Budapest

If you have guests in Budapest and you want to mesmerize them just take them to the Gellért hill and show the Chain Bridge. For Hungarians a bit boring already, but I still like to see the face of our visitors when they see this view for the first time:)

Fireworks in Budapest

Fireworks Budapest - 20th of Aug 2009

This year the 20th of August fireworks were really very amazing in Budapest. And Richard was right in his comment yesterday, the event was pretty touchy when they played the national anthem in the middle of it. See more photos here.
