We came to Elizabeth Square. It was located outside the fortress wall of the city of Pest and was named in honor of Elizabeth (Sissi) in 1858. In 1948 it was called Stalin's Square, then Engels Square in 1953, and in 1990 its historical name was returned to it. The longitudinal building along the New Year's stalls was built by Hausmann, the great architect of Paris. It had a cafe on the first floor and a dance hall on the second.
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.
