If you are here in Budapest, one of the must see is the Buda Castle which was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill. It is next to the old Castle District (Hun: Várnegyed), which is famous for its medieval, Baroque and 19th century houses and public buildings. This special lady statue sits right at a corner of the building.
You can find it at: 1014 Budapest, District I, Szentháromság tér

Here is the series of street scenes of Budapest.

We have 8ºC today and most of the snow is melting. In winter, I love seeing the sunshine and the blue blue sky, cos this is when I think most of the photos looks best especially of the old buildings and architectures found in Budapest.

Matthias Church (Hungarian: Mátyás-templom) is a church located in Budapest, Hungary, at the heart of Buda’s Castle District. According to church tradition, it was originally built in 1015. The current building was constructed in the florid late Gothic style in the second half of the 14th century and was extensively restored in the late 19th century. It was the second largest church in medieval Buda.

For some reason, the Fishermen’s Bastion is the most charming part of the Buda Castle area. Most of my friends from Singapore loved this place. None of them could resists not taking any photographs at the castle area.

In a big city snow doesn’t remain beautiful for long. After a while it will be an ugly, gray spot along the road. I don’t like this period.
