"Tale of 2 cities (Buda+Pest)" Budapest by SirRichard
Budapest Travel Guide: 7,467 reviews and 17,322 photos
I passed 2 days in Budapest in August 1987, as part of a longer Inter-Rail train travel visiting Madrid, Rome, Istambul, Budapest, München... or something like that. I left Madrid with my brother Ignacio and in the way we met an australian guy (Vince Lovecchio) and a canadian girl (Sue Cabatoff) who came with us all the rest of the travel.
I've lost some of the photos from that trip so I'll put some "not-so-mine" photos in it to fill some gaps.
