Have you ever heard about the country-Hungary? It is a magic place. I like travel very much especially travel round the world. Luckily, I have chance to visit Budapest, which make me know more about the amazing city. Today I introduce you something about the capital of Hungary, Budapest.

Budapest is a city for lovers. The name Budapest eventually caught on and the city soon became the political and industrial center of Hungary. What is more, The name Budapest eventually caught on and the city soon became the political and industrial center of Hungary.

There is more to Budapest than fish soup, paprika and Zsa Zsa Gabor. With its multifarious history, incredible architecture and rich cultural heritage, the capital of Hungary has the justly deserved sobriquet of the Paris of Central Europe', set apart from other Hungarian and European cities by its beauty.

The city has a complex identity, currently facing something of a crisis with the allure of modern Western luxury in conflict with the simple traditions of its Eastern European roots and penchant for all things classical.

The Castle District on Castle Hill is the premier destination for visitors and contains many of Budapest's most important monuments and museums, not to mention grand views of Pest across the snaking Danube. The walled area consists of two distinct parts: the Old Town where commoners lived in the middle Ages, and the Royal Palace. Stroll around the medieval streets of the Old Town and take in the odd museum. A brief tour in one of the horse-drawn hackney cabs is worthwhile for the leg weary. The Old Town is filled with attractively painted houses, decorative churches and the famous Fishermen's Bastion. It has commanding views over the city, and is dominated by seven gleaming turrets (representing the seven Magyar tribes who entered the Carpathian Basin in the 9th century) and a statue of St Stephen on horseback. Immediately south of the Old Town is the Royal Palace.

The Royal Palace has been burned, bombed, razed, rebuilt and redesigned at least half a dozen times over the past seven centuries. What you see today clinging to the southern end of Castle Hill is an 18th and early 20th-century amalgam reconstructed after the last war. It houses, among other things, the impressive National Gallery (which has a huge section devoted to Hungarian art), the National Library and the Budapest History Museum. At the rear of the museum take a relaxing break in the palace gardens. Ferdinand Gate under the conical Mace Tower will bring you to a set of steps.

I hope all I share with you will give different think in your lives. If you are fond of visiting Hungary, you must have a look at its capital. The history, custom will show you different feel with no doubt.

Nowadays, travel has become more and more popular. People not only like to visit famous scenic spots and historical sites inland but also abroad. When holiday is coming, most people are planning to have a visit some place. I want to say Budapest is a good choice for you.
