Budapest,
the capital of Hungary, is an economic, financial and cultural centre with two
million inhabitants. The city, which is beautifully situated on both sides of
the Danube river has a history dating back over 2000 years. There are ruins from
the times of the Roman Empire as well as from the Middle Ages. Its main
characteristics reflect the atmosphere of the end of the 19th century when the
millennium of the Hungarian State was celebrated. It boasts a number of museums
(picture
