Hungarian Parliament Building in Budapest Print

Yeap you guessed it! New work of the Hungarian Parliament Building – aka Országház in Hungarian.?️ ?Classically I've summoned a few interesting facts for you guys: ?The architect of the building went blind before its completion ( no wonder) ?The shaping of the House of Parliament grew out of conscious choices of symbolism and carries important historical and political messages. Viewing it from the side of the Danube, we see the halls of the lower and upper houses rise on both sides of the dome surrounded by turrets, which evoke the memory of the bicameral parliament. The dome rising between them signifies the unity of the legislature. ?The building blends elements and motifs of various architectural styles: its floor plan is Baroque, the façade ornamentation evokes the world of Gothic, and the decoration of the ceiling shows stylistic elements of the Renaissance ?Inside and outside, there are altogether 242 sculptures on the walls.The façade displays statues of Hungarian rulers, Transylvanian leaders and famous military figures. (if you look close you can spot a few) ?The heating and ventilation system in the building – which was quite a sensation in its day as one of the most modern such systems in Europe – works perfectly even today (it's true! I've been inside and it felt great) Have you been to Budapest too? How was it for you? I personally loved it, but sadly I don't really much because on the first day I found some pretty good ruined pub, followed by a few beers??? The best way to explore Budapest ?
