Hungary🇭🇺, Budapest, Fisherman's Bastion

The Fisherman's Bastion is one of the most popular and recognizable sights of Budapest. It is located on a hilltop in Buda and is visible from almost anywhere in the city. 

This is a favorite place of tourists for several reasons at once: firstly, a stunningly picturesque view opens from the bastion. The main bridges of the capital of Hungary, spanning the Danube River, appear before you in the palm of your hand, immediately behind them the Basilica of St. Stephen, as if descended from souvenir postcards, and the rest of the historic district of Pest, and a little to the left stretches Orsaghaz — the Hungarian Parliament building. 

Secondly, the place itself seems unusual and fabulous: towers, terraces, balustrades resemble the scenery for a historical film. Walking along the walls of the bastion, it seems that even time stopped here several hundred years ago.
