You can see the Royal Palace (at your left) and the Chain bridge over the Danube. This photo was taken on the Citadel, on Gellért Hill. This Citadel was built by the Austrians to control the city after the 1848-1849 war of independence. Today it’s nothing else than a great look-out, with a restaurant, a café and a hotel. On the top of the hill there’s a 14 m high Liberation Monument (1947), which can be seen from Pest.
We’ll now get back down to the river bank ...
