Budapest is a great big, busy and exciting city. It’s the capital and largest city in Hungary, and one of the largest cities in the European Union, with a metropolitan population of 3.3 million.

The Central Market is one of Budapest’s great institutions. It’s cavernous and bustling and filled with food, clothes, gifts, wine, a great lunch and all things Hungarian.

Dear Friends,
We wondered how after Spain your view on Budapest should be.
We’re excited about your new images of a totally different part of Europe.
Go on and make new pictures!
Have a nice time
Your Anneke and Jan
Spain was beautiful and exotic but Budapest!!! It strikes a chord with me. Love the photos of the shops with their wonderful signs. Have you been to the speakeasy yet?
Haven’t been to the Speakeasy yet, but we’re a little drunk right now.
