Life moves fast in Budapest, and yet sometimes, if you sit on a bench before one of the city’s grand landmarks and just take a few minutes to admire the stunning scenery, it feels like the scurrying masses almost disappear amid sensations of aesthetic serenity. This feeling is captured uncannily in a newly posted collection of high-definition time-lapse footage that artfully captures Budapest’s bustle while focusing on spectacular sights of the Magyar metropolis.
In the newly posted “Budapest Timelapse Collection” video on the CsontFox YouTube channel, as a mellow guitar solo plays in the background, we are treated to a series of seemingly professional high-definition portrayals of major city landmarks – ranging from the Chain Bridge to Vajdahunyad Castle to Fishermen’s Bastion – as cars, boats, passersby, and even clouds zoom past in a blurry bustle amid their busy goings-on… but for the viewer, only the monumental sights are in focus, with all of their glory captured gorgeously in crystal-clear resolution.
