On November 17th 1873, a trio of neighboring towns along the Danube – Buda, Pest and Óbuda – united as a single city to create modern-day Budapest. From prosperous periods witnessing vibrant city development to war-torn tragedy, numerous historic events have shaped Hungary’s capital, which today attracts millions of visitors thanks to its unique attractions. We honor our pulsating capital with a selection of stimulating photographs portraying Budapest’s unrivaled vibe.
