Krátky popis
Budapest has always been an important place. Almost at the centre
of Europe, it is at the crossroads of geographical regions and of
civilizations, at the intersection of ancient trade routes.
Mountains that gradually slope into gentle hills converge on a
great river, the Danube, and the regions of Buda and Pest sprang up
on either side.Throughout history the centre of gravity in Budapest
and among Hungarians has shifted between this division of East and
West - culturally, politically, emotionally. Invaders have come and
gone, empires have conquered, occupied for centuries or decades,
and left a few footprints behind: the remains of a Roman bath house
complete with wonderfully preserved mosaics stand next to a
Soviet-style 'five-year-plan' apartment block. The city bears the
scars of the rise and fall of multiple empires, two world wars,
fascism, Nazi German occupation, Soviet Communism.It has been home
to some of the world's greatest writers, artists and musicians.
Hungary is a place of extremes, a small country that has often in
history punched well above its weight. At many moments, events that
began in Budapest have proved to be of world significance.This is
the story of that tumultuous, often divided, but always fascinating
city.
