So, I Spent 5 Hours in Budapest, Hungary, Budapest, Hungary
Last month I had a wonderful opportunity to visit Hungary and explore its culture for almost 2 weeks.

We didn’t have time to explore much of it but from what I saw, it’s a very lovely place to spend the whole afternoon at. A lot of gorgeous architecture and activities to do. We also ran into a bigger souvenir shop there where I bought a magnet for my on-growing collection. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
