Nighttime views of
in Budapest
What can I say? I’m a Philistine. Beyond
these trips each year, my exposure to the world is limited to what I see in
movies and on TV. And my only recollection of Budapest was hearing Lisa Douglas
refer to it repeatedly as “The Old Country” on “Green Acres,” a sitcom decades
old. Not coincidentally, the actress portraying Lisa, Eva Gabor was from
Budapest, as were her sisters, including the famous (and infamous) Zsa Zsa.
Frankly, I envisioned the city as being ancient. And I was right. It is rife
with old castles, beautiful cathedrals – buildings constructed in a way over we
marvel today but wouldn’t dare try to replicate. Budapest is truly a spectacle.
And during the
day
