Thus far, I've noticed that it's really rare to walk into a place in an unfamiliar country, in which your language is typically a burden, and feel immediately comfortable. Kiadó Kocsma és Étterem is a little cafe/bar in Lipótváros with chill music, cheap drinks and snack, and an artsy setting. I'm saying all these great things about it, but I just read some reviews explaining the bad service and food sickness from their stew. Regardless, I'll still give it another try!
A lot of Budapest is under construction right now. At first, I was a little disappointed because of my visual implications, but I realize that it's great for the Hungarians to have updates to their city. Besides, I'm sure it takes a lot to maintain buildings that are hundreds of years old.
There are bikes everywhere, and they even have these precious stop lights for cyclists as well!
I went for another solo wander and ended up at Hősök tere, which means Hero's Square. I've never been to any sort of historical monument with nobody else there, so it was slightly eerie. In the center is a statue of the archangel Gabriel looking down towards seven mounted knights charging into battle which represent the chiefs of seven Magyar tribes.
Oh look! I found a reader and a skateboarder! Both who turned their backs on me when I tried taking photos of them...
