S H F bike tours πŸ‡­πŸ‡Ί 🚴🏼 day 10

You would love Budapest! It has to be the most easy city to get around to date, that I have ever experienced.  Spent the whole day on the hop on hop off bus, walking around, riding the metro, trams, and buses. Easy peasy.  Even Minnesotans can figure it out with much ease. The scars of wars are still a bit evident. This city suffered significant damage. 80% of the buildings were damaged. It is recovering  well.  The architecture varies from baroque to quite modern. The city has some similarity to Prague but  much different feel. Buildings and streets are much grander scale. 

Have a look see:

Hero's square 

One of the 7 spa/baths








Parliament building. 


Bronz sculpture of 60 pairs of shoes on the very location where Hungarian nazis took people and shot them. The river took the bodies away. Hard to conceive .....


Figured out the metro, very slick.  Would it be nice to have in the twin cities.....



Of course, we HAD to find this place! 


Tomorrow our last day in Budapest and Hungary. All of our travel group is either home or on their way. Except me,  meeting 5 people over next few days then starting s bike and barge tour. So much more adventure to come, keep reading!
