Yella to Hungary

Miért és hogyan épült a Várhegy keleti oldalán, a Duna-parton hosszan elnyúló impozáns, neoreneszánsz épületegyüttes? Sétánkon megismerjük a „főváros ékszerdobozának” nevezett Várkert Bazár tervezőjét, Ybl Miklóst, miközben alkotásának lenyűgöző részleteiben, csillogó Zsolnay-kerámiákban, művészien megformált kovácsoltvasakban, tökéletesen megfestett üvegablakokban és illatos rózsakertekben gyönyörködünk. Utunk során elmeséljük az épületegyüttes sorsát a születéstől a pusztuláson át egészen a rekonstrukcióig. Bemutatjuk, hogyan vált a helyszín középkori védműből szobrászgenerációk alkotóhelyévé, majd az Ifipark hangos évtizedei után a kultúra és művészet központjává és a főváros egyik legszebb panorámájú pihenőhelyévé.

BUDAPEST

Budapest, is the capital and most populous city of Hungary.

The River Danube enters the city from the north; later it encircles two islands, Óbuda Island and Margaret Island.

The River Danube that separates the two parts of the city is 230 m (755 ft) wide at its narrowest point in Budapest. Pest lies on the flat terrain of the Great Plain while Buda is rather hilly.

MARGARET ISLAND

Margaret Island is the green heart of Budapest. It lies in the middle of the Danube between Margaret Bridge and Árpád Bridge. Apart from a couple of hotels and sports facilities, there are no buildings on the island – it’s a huge recreational space with promenades and benches, cycle paths and a jogging track, great for a date or a picnic. Here is where you’ll find the Hajós Alfréd National Sports Swimming Pool, the popular Palatinus lido, a petting zoo, a musical fountain and a Japanese Garden. Few cars are allowed – the island is served by the No.26 bus from Nyugati station, and it has its own stop on the frequent 4/6 tram route, halfway along Margaret Bridge. All kinds of bikes, tandems and pedalos can be hired. Towards the north end of the island, in the shadow of the Water Tower, an open-air concert venue operates in summer for mainstream entertainment. Close by, the ruins of a medieval Dominican convent are historically linked to former resident Margaret, daughter of Béla IV, after whom the island is named.

ST STEPHEN'S BASILICA

St Stephen’s Basilica is the largest church in Budapest. Planning and construction took 54 years, involving three chief architects and the collapse of the entire dome nearly two decades into the project. It was around this time that Miklós Ybl of Opera House fame took over the reins, though his death in 1891 meant that József Kauser saw the Basilica through to its completion. Deliberately designed to reach an exact height of 96 metres, the same as Parliament, the Basilica wasn’t ready for the 1896 Hungarian Millennial celebrations, only seeing the light of day in 1905. Today, accommodating 8,000 worshippers, characterised by rich ornamentation and huge windows radiating light and dignity, it provides a suitable setting for state funerals.

The public can observe the somewhat macabre sight of the preserved right hand, the Holy Dexter, of Hungary’s first king, St Stephen, kept as a relic in the main aisle. His mummified body is buried in the undercroft.

While one lift takes you to the treasury, the other goes up to the dome, with marvellous views over the city. The Basilica also hosts recitals and concerts.
