Buda Castle | World Heritage Site

When my Singaporean friends visited me, they all fell in love with this place called Buda Castle. It is the historical castle complex of the Hungarian kings in Budapest, Hungary, first completed in 1265. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace and Royal Castle.

This World Heritage site was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill, surrounded by what is known as the Castle District, famous for its Medieval, Baroque and 19th century living quarters and public buildings. It is linked to Adam Clark Square and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge by the Castle Hill Funicular. This place is all about its special ambience. I love it!
