view of the bridges at night

It`s really interesting going up to the Citadel and waiting that the lights appear little by little. First the streets, than slowly the monuments are getting illuminated: The Chain Bridge, the Royal Palace and the Castle district, The Cupola of the Parliament, The Academy of Sciences, the Gresham palace, The Innercity Parish church, the Serbian ortodox church, The Basilica...ecc...

	Budapest at night: The Liberty Place (Szabadság tér) at night	Tip Rating:

on April 4, 2007

The Inter Europa Bank with the
Parliament

The Liberty Place is one of the most beautiful squares in Budapest, it`s in reality the financial centre of the city. You can find here important buildings, like the

1. National Bank (see Things to do tip later)
2. The huge secessionist building of the Hungarian Television, the ex Stock exchange of Budapest.This palace will shortly be transformed into a 5 stars Hotel and the Television will move
3. The Embassy of the United States
4. The buildings of the Inter Europa bank and of the OTP bank
5. other interesting buildings, with little cupolas

In the evening the buildings get lit up and the typical rushy business square becomes calm, ideal to take a walk...

Pest at night with the Danube

In the Castle district you can easily find the best places to make good landscape photos. There are plenty of them. Maybe the most famous is the Fishermen`s Bastion, but from the Püspökkert (episcopal garden) or from the Royal palace, you can also have the possibility to shoot great night pictures.

	Budapest at night: The saint Stephen`s Basilica at night	Tip Rating:

Behind the Basilica (setting
I)

With the complete reconstruction of the Basilica that lasted for 18 years (1984-2002), Budapest`s main church has recieved a splendid illumination and also the Saint Stephen`s square, it`l located in has been drastically modified. No cars allowed anymore. The last fase of the works, say the "pedestrianisation" of the Zrínyi street that goes from the Chain Bridge right into the Saint Stephen square has already begun.
I put in photos in 2 different settings. I think that the setting I is closer to the reality.

Small boats

Budapest at night in my opinion is Budapest with all its best. Charming lights everywhere, nice panoramas, especially looking at Parliament, Castle of Buda, Chain Bridge.

We had nice time on the boat watching all the main sights of night Budapest.

The Danubius Fountain in the
evening.

As I said in the Elisabeth square tip (see things to do tips), the Danubius fountain is considered one of the finest fountains in Budapest. You can find it in a Park near the Basilica.
Here is a nice night shot of this important monument.

Castle Hill, Budapest

Many of the old buildings in Budapest are illuminated in night time (or at least in the evening). You should not miss to walk along the Danube on the Pest side to see the Castle in light . On Castle Hill the Fishermen?s Bastion and Matthias church are also illuminated. If you stand on the Buda side you will see that only part of the Parliament is illuminated. In a few years when the restorations are finished the whole building will probably be illuminated. Also the St Stephen?s Basilica and some of the bridges are in lights.

Heroes' Square.

The 36m column has a statue of the Archangel gabriel at the top. The vast sqaure including the colonnades are lit up at night.

My attempts at a snap shot are less than perfect but do give an idea of the impact of the location.

Casual attire but keep warm.
