Thought you’d seen the best Budapest video of our empty streets and squares? Think again! Set to a haunting soundtrack by indie pop band Margaret Island, featuring the heart-tugging voice of Viki Lábas, ‘Budapest – the Silent City’ conveys the sheer beauty of the Hungarian capital, its streets, squares and trams bereft of people. Take a look – and take a listen!
Directed by Márton Bohn, Budapest – the Silent City takes in our best-loved sights such as Citadella, the Chain Bridge and Parliament, as well as once-busy landmarks such as Keleti station, the M2 metro and the Danube-hugging tram 2. Music by Margaret Island, singing by Viki Lábas, lyrics to A csend (‘Silence’) by Péter Gerendás.
