Budapest's Top 10

Budapest's dustless highway is ever present, neatly dividing the city into Buda
and Pest and still serving as an important means of transport. The Danube
bridges (all eight of them, not counting train bridges), at once landmarks and de-
lightful vantage points over the river, are the stitches that have bound Buda and
Pest together since well before the two were linked politically in 1873. The four
bridges in the centre stand head and shoulders above the rest: Margaret Bridge,
Széchenyi Chain Bridge, Elizabeth Bridge and Liberty Bridge.
