Orientation
Orientation is not a big problem in Budapest. The river Danube splits the
city into two areas: Buda and Pest. Aside from
the very center, the city's structure is quite logical. Landmarks in Buda as the
Royal Castle or Citadella Castle also help you to find your way. Besides the
Danube itself, the best reference points for orienting yourself are the bridges
crossing the river. From North to South, they are:
- Árpád Bridge (Árpád híd), A modern bridge linking to
Northern Margaret Island. The longest bridge in Budapest at 973 meters.
- Margaret Bridge (Margit híd), Easily identified thanks to
its distinctive shape: it makes an approximately 35 degree turn half way
across, at the southern tip of Margaret Island. Trams 4 and 6 cross the
Danube here.
- Chain Bridge (Széchenyi lánchíd), Completed in 1849, the
oldest, arguably most beautiful and certainly the most photographed of
Budapest's bridges, floodlit at night.
- Elisabeth Bridge (Erzsébet híd), Completed in 1903. Its
original chain structure was destroyed in World War II, and was eventually
substituted by a modern cable bridge opened in 1964.
- Liberty Bridge (Szabadság híd), Elegant but simple, opened
in 1896; it connects the Gellért Baths (Gellért fürdő) in Buda with the
Great Market Hall (Nagyvásárcsarnok) in Pest. Recently renovated.
- Petőfi Bridge (Petőfi híd), For a long time the
southernmost bridge, it links the inner ring road (Nagykörút) of Pest with
Buda.
- Lágymányosi Bridge (Lágymányosi híd), The newest bridge in
Budapest, with modern architecture and a spectacular lighting system where
mirrors reflect the beam of the upward facing floodlights. Built very next
to a railway bridge on its southern side.
