At some point of the city you can find these containers for selective recycle. Not everywhere but hopefully one day the entire city will be more green-technology friendly.

November 25, 2009 - Laundry

Patyolat

Public laundry. Not too often to see it in Budapest anymore though in the 60s it was quite common here too. Its not a self-service system there is a staff that handle your cloths and other materials. People usually bring there suits or special clothes.

This is a Művelődési Központ (means something like cultural centre) named after my favorite poet Attila József.  Its located in Angyalföld (XIIIth district of Budapest) which is traditionally an area of the labour class.

November 5, 2009 - BKV

Budapest

I guess many Hungarians (including me) know this office very well. This is the place where you can pay your fine and you can prove that you have a month card for the public transportation after you got caught by the controllers on a tramway or in the Metro.:)
