My hosts and I didn’t do too much exploring the firs day, instead we simply sorted out our bearings and had a nice afternoon lunch at a cafe that’s been around since the 1800′s. The first night we got a good picture of the castle we would be visiting the next day, lit up.

The next day we actually went up to the castle, where we got an impressive view over the city, and the Danube river. Around the old Matthias church was a citadel that looked newly constructed, we got photos taken off that.

My hosts and I also got our photos taken with Budapest behind us, unfortunately the camera wasn’t placed high enough to get the full view.
