October 27, 2009 - Umbrella Ladies

umbrella ladies - obuda, budapest

I’ve blogged about the umbrella ladies before. It was a very foggy time when I first been to the Obuda.

It is the 3rd district in Budapest and if you were to compare, you’ll notice the flowers are different as compared to the previous. I love the mood of this place! Especially now that it’s Autumn…

April 21, 2009 - The statue of Ignác Alpár

Statue of Budapest

Ignác Alpár began his career as a stonemason, then worked under architect Alajos Hauszmann. After completing formal studies in Berlin, he returned to Budapest to work under Imre Steindl and Hauszmann again. He began independent practice in 1890, working mainly on public projects in a historicist, eclectic style. The most well known of these is the so-called Vajdahunyad Castle built for the millenary celebrations in 1896, which incorporated architectural styles practised in Hungary from the Middle Ages to the Baroque period.
