Széchenyi Chain Bridge
The Chain Bridge, also known as the Szechenyi Bridge or the Szechenyi Chain Bridge, was originally named after its patron, and was later commonly known as the Chain Bridge because of the construction method of iron chain traction. This is a bridge across the Danube, connecting Buda and Pest, and a symbol and landmark of the merged city. The construction of the Chain Bridge began in 1839 and was completed in 1849, with a total length of 380 meters. When it was built, it was the bridge with the largest span in the world at that time. The bridge body was made of chains as the skeleton. There were pedestrian walkways on both sides of the bridge deck, and vehicles could pass in the middle. The bridgeheads standing on both sides of the strait are two tall and majestic stone triumphal arches. Huge steel cables are drawn out from the bridgehead, and the stretched bridge deck is suspended, outlining a strong curve. There are two stone lions guarding the bridge near the Pace area. The lion is resolute and majestic. It guards the Chain Bridge day and night like a patron saint. Walking on the Bridge Walking on the Chain Bridge, you can enjoy the charming scenery on both sides of Buda and Pest, the tranquil Danube, the magnificent Hungarian Parliament Building, and the dreamy Fisherman's Bastion. When you are in it, it is like stepping into a frozen historical picture. Whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, the scenery here is unique. The Buda end of the Chain Bridge has a vertical cable car from which you can ascend the Castle Hill. On the Pest side of the Chain Bridge is Széchenyi Istvan Square, where you can admire the palace-like buildings of the Hungarian Academy of Social Sciences and the Four Seasons Hotel. The Chain Bridge, a romantic place, is full of romance and literature when the lights are on. Under the light and shadow, the Chain Bridge is more mottled and has a hazy beauty. You can see many couples dating here. No wonder it has always been known as Budapest. One of the more romantic places, the famous "Love in Budapest" has also been filmed here many times. The Buda Palace on the Buda side is a great place to look over the Chain Bridge, from where you can enjoy a stunning view of the Reichstag, the Chain Bridge and the Danube. Every year on the Hungarian National Day, the Chain Bridge is only for pedestrians, and fireworks will bloom on the Danube River.Budapest · 31.5 km from Val

Liberty Bridge (Budapest)
Liberty Bridge (Budapest)is a well-known bridge in downtown Budapest spanning the Danube River, connecting the Buda bank on the west and the Pest bank on the east. Although the bridge uses a steel truss structure, its design avoids the heavy feel typical of industrial architecture, instead cleverly incorporating the elegant styling of traditional bridges. The overall outline of the bridge draws on the design features of chain bridges, with clean and smooth steel frame lines, while incorporating Art Nouveau decorative elements, giving the sturdy steel structure a delicate and elegant visual effect. The eye-catching decoration on top of the bridge towers is a bronze statue of the Turul, poised for flight. After nightfall, the bridge becomes even more charming under the lights, with the silhouette of the bridge echoing its reflection in the Danube River, creating a romantic and tranquil atmosphere.Budapest · 31.6 km from Val

I have to say that the Chain Bridge looks good from any angle. If you want to take pictures from the angles of Figures 1-3, stand on the platform on the way to Buda Castle. Figures 4-5 are at the bridge head, which is right next to the No. 105 bus stop. The Leo restaurant and bar on the top floor of the Clark Hotel has an excellent viewing position. You can see the Parliament Building from the left side, and the Chain Bridge and Buda Castle from the right side. Figure 6 is on the protruding platform on the left side facing the Buda Castle.

Apart from anything else, the color of this bridge alone is the winner!
The night view is just so-so. It is more beautiful during the day. Even with the light, the color is not very beautiful.
It is enough to look at the Capitol at night.
The Liberty Bridge is also very photogenic, but you have to walk to the middle of the red light to take better photos.

Absolutely love the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna! One day is simply not enough to fully explore and appreciate its magnificent collections. The dining venue at the heart of the building is another highlight, with its spectacular domed ceiling and breathtaking architectural design.I must say, the Egyptian collection is exceptionally well displayed—arguably even better than what I experienced at the National Gallery in London. A truly wonderful museum that deserves much more than just a day to explore!

Scanning the QR code at the entrance was quick and easy. The Belvedere Palace's art exhibition spans three floors, enough to easily fill a whole day. The park outside features fountains and sculptures depicting various figures from ancient Greek mythology. I sent photos and pictures of the sculptures to Doubao, and he explained them in detail.
