Buda Castle is a historic palace complex in Budapest, Hungary. It was originally built in the 13th century and has since undergone multiple reconstructions due to wars, fires, and changing architectural styles. The castle sits on Castle Hill (Várhegy) and offers stunning panoramic views of the Danube River and Pest.

First built in 1265 by King Béla IV to defend against Mongol invasions. It was expanded and renovated during the reign of King Matthias Corvinus (15th century) and later saw major Baroque-style reconstruction in the 18th century under Habsburg rule. Nowadays, Buda Castle is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lánchíd) is one of Budapest’s most iconic landmarks. It was the first permanent bridge to connect Buda and Pest across the Danube River, playing a crucial role in uniting the two sides of the city.

The Chain Bridge is built between 1842 and 1849, designed by William Tierney Clark and constructed by Adam Clark (no relation), and it symbolized Hungary’s modernization and economic growth in the 19th century. The bridge was blown up by retreating German forces in 1945 and later rebuilt in 1949, on its 100th anniversary.

The stone lions at each end of the bridge, sculpted by János Marschalkó, are famous. A local legend humorously claims that the lions have no tongues (but they actually do). At night, the bridge is beautifully illuminated, offering spectacular views of Buda Castle, Parliament, and the Danube.

“A small boat on Lake Voulismeni”

Lake Voulismeni is a former enclosed lake, now opened to the sea by a canal dug at the end of the 19th century in the town of Agios Nikolaos, in Crete.

The lake has become the town's harbour, where the fishermen of Agios Nikolaos moor their small boats.

Childers Cove is on the western end of the Great Ocean Road, yet it remains unexplored by most visitors to the region. Makes it all the more enjoyable for those of us who get to discover it.
