The monument to Ronald Reagan on the Freedom Square marks for the Hungarians the end of the Cold War and the fall of the communist regime. Nevertheless, it would be correct to mention Mikhail Gorbachev or designate the monument for these two leaders who put an end to the difficult period of world history called the Cold War. But the Hungarians have enough another absurdity. One of them was a memorial to the victims of the German occupation, which caused a lot of arguments among Hungarians and caused protests against the reasons and circumstances behind its creation and erection on the Liberty Square.
A short walk in the evening winter Budapest. We pass Karoli Boulevard, a monument to Empress Elizabeth, Freedom Square, monuments and a secret bunker of the Cold War, parliament square and the history of Hungarian independence. The winter is cool on the Danube but the stunning parliament building admires by its beauty and grandeur. We stopped for a minute of silence at the Danube embankment next to the chilling soul monument to the victims of the Holocaust. To the end of the walking have visited a cozy Christmas city center with its Christmas markets and have ended the tour with mystical Anchor House and the luminous synagogue.
Don't be afraid to get lost in new places!
