Озеро Сукко (Кипарисовое озеро), или Голубое озеро — одна из самых популярных и фотогеничных локаций в окрестностях Анапы. Удивительные деревья с узловатыми корнями и приятным смолистым ароматом растут здесь прямо из воды. О происхождении названия озера существует множество предположений. С адыгейского топоним можно перевести как «водоем кабанов». Существует также вариант трактовки «Сукко» как «су» — вода и «къко» – свинья или дельфин. Озеро в Сукко было создано искусственно путем строительства плотины на реке, впадающей в Черное море, что привело к затоплению долины. Этот водоем занимает площадь всего 8 гектаров. Высота Кипарисового озера - 40 м над уровнем моря. Особую известность озеру принес уникальный эксперимент, проведенный в 1934–1935 годах, когда были посажены 32 болотных кипарисов, которые успешно прижились и выросли.  Изначально кипарисы были посажены на сухой земле, однако из-за значительных изменений рельефа территории они со временем оказались в воде. В периоды засухи уровень воды в озере понижается, обнажая обширную корневую систему деревьев. Кипарисы достигают внушительной высоты почти в 30 метров, а их стволы могут быть шириной до полуметра. Роща прекрасна практически в любой сезон: весной свежая листва хвойных деревьев нежно-зелёная, летом приобретает более тёмный и насыщенный оттенок, а осенью полыхает ярко-оранжевым или красным цветом. К зиме деревья полностью сбрасывают листву, обнажая ветвистые кроны — в чём тоже есть своя красота.

Из-за обилия известняковых отложений в зависимости от освещения озеро Сукко может менять цвет от нежного молочно-голубого до насыщенного бирюзового. Голубое озеро не только известно своими кипарисами и кристально чистой водой, но и окружающей его природой. Водоем находится среди лесопарка с дубами и грабами, а с северной стороны его окружают склоны горы Широкая. Рядом также расположена можжевеловая роща, создающая лечебный воздух в этой местности.

Lake Sukko (Cypress Lake), or Blue Lake, is one of the most popular and photogenic locations in the vicinity of Anapa. Amazing trees with knotty roots and a pleasant resinous aroma grow here directly from the water. There are many speculations about the origin of the name of the lake. From the Adyghe toponym can be translated as “pond of wild boars.” There is also an option to interpret “Sukko” as “su” - water and “kko” - pig or dolphin. The lake in Sukko was created artificially by building a dam on a river flowing into the Black Sea, which led to flooding of the valley. This reservoir covers an area of ​​only 8 hectares. The height of Cypress Lake is 40 m above sea level. The lake became especially famous due to a unique experiment conducted in 1934–1935, when 32 swamp cypress trees were planted, which successfully took root and grew.Initially, the cypress trees were planted on dry land, but due to significant changes in the terrain, they eventually ended up in water. During periods of drought, the lake's water level drops, exposing the trees' extensive root systems. Cypress trees reach an impressive height of almost 30 meters, and their trunks can be up to half a meter wide. The grove is beautiful in almost any season: in the spring, the fresh foliage of coniferous trees is soft green, in the summer it acquires a darker and richer shade, and in the fall it blazes with bright orange or red. By winter, the trees completely shed their leaves, revealing branched crowns - which also has its own beauty.

Due to the abundance of limestone deposits, depending on the lighting, Lake Sukko can change color from delicate milky blue to rich turquoise. Blue Lake is not only famous for its cypress trees and crystal clear water, but also for the nature that surrounds it. The reservoir is located among a forest park with oaks and hornbeams, and on the northern side it is surrounded by the slopes of Mount Shirokaya. There is also a juniper grove nearby, which creates healing air in this area.

bola na trave não altera o placar. fem!reader x pipe otaño

fem!reader, pipe otaño x reader, fluff.

cw: pipe é meio babaca no começo!!!

sinopse: "poderia fazer algo do pipe onde ele fica revoltadíssimo e chateado com a derrota do river em algum campeonato e não tá afim de papo com ninguém. maaas, a leitora (alheia a chateação dele) tá muito empolgada com alguma coisa e fica tagalerando pra ele, até que ele perde um pouco linha e manda ela ficar quieta ou algo do tipo? daí coitado se arrepende na hora mas ela não vai perdoar fácil assim."

wn: ficou aquela coisa bem melosa e melada heheeh espero que goste! desculpa a demora!!!

você abriu a porta do apartamento com muita dificuldade, os braços cheios de compras de supermercado e duas mudinhas de plantinhas que roubou no meio do caminho para casa.

pipe estava sentado no sofá, vestido com sua camisa do river, digitando alguma coisa no telefone. você estava tão animada com o que tinha acontecido pela manhã, além de estar afobada com a quantidade de coisas equilibradas em seu braço, que mal teve tempo de prestar atenção no semblante sombrio do argentino.

"ay, amorzinho! você nem sabe!" começou a tagarelar na medida que ia dispondo as sacolas em cima da mesa de vidro. "lembra aquela série brasileira que a gente estava assistindo na netflix?"

ele murmurou alguma coisa, mas você seguiu ignorando. às vezes, quando ele estava no telefone, era mais difícil de conseguir uma frase ou palavra completa mesmo. não porque era ignorante - só não era bom em fazer várias coisas ao mesmo tempo.

a recepção morna não te parou.

"simplesmente encontrei a atriz principal no supermercado aqui do bairro! uma querida - super solícita, conversamos em português mesmo e ela me deu um autógrafo. acredita? me senti uma menina de novo, quando encontra uma ídola!" com as sacolas organizadas, você começou a retirar os conteúdos e ir separando na mesa a partir da gaveta e parte do armário onde ficariam. "ela disse que meu cabelo era lindo e me perguntou dicas de shampoo! SHAMPOO, pipe!" você riu, alheia. "e você nem acredita no que ela falou sobre-"

"você não consegue ficar quieta por cinco minutos?" pipe vociferou, interrompendo sua fala.

na mesma hora, seu coração caiu. sentiu as lágrimas brotando no cantinho dos seus olhos (muito obrigada, tpm!). largou a tarefa que fazia, colocou as duas mudinhas no aparador e marchou em direção a porta.

pipe percebeu a besteira que fez, mas infelizmente, não a tempo. ele se levantou do sofá na mesma hora que você virou, largando o telefone nas almofadas, enquanto partia atrás de você. tentou se colocar no meio do seu caminho, "amor, me desculpa! me desculpa! é que o river perdeu e eu estava falando com o simón e..."

"não se preocupe, babaca. pra você eu vou ficar quieta pra sempre." empurrou ele para o lado, não com força, mas com firmeza. procurava a chave de casa com raiva nos bolsos. não ficaria no apartamento um minuto a mais.

"por favor! me desculpa!"

você deu apenas mais um olhar irritado, abriu a porta do apartamento e fechou na cara dele, com toda força que tinha no seu corpo.

quase correu pelo corredor do prédio em direção ao elevador, com medo que ele viesse atrás de você. ao entrar pelas portas de metal, o alívio de ter "fugido" deu lugar as lágrimas e os soluços que saiam livremente, sem seu controle.

quando o "ping" conhecido indicou que você havia chegado no térreo, encontrou a figura esbaforida de pipe descendo o último degrau de escada do prédio.

"amorzinho, por favor, me desculpa." o argentino falou em português, na tentativa em vão de te amolecer. você queria respondê-lo, mandá-lo para aquele lugar, mas permaneceu em silêncio. negou sutilmente com a cabeça. "eu fui grosso e estúpido. pra começo de conversa, eu nem estava te ouvindo direito. me desculpa mesmo!" ele segurou suas mãos, beijando a pontinha dos seus dedos, te olhando com aquele olhar suplicante.

você suavizou. era um babaca, mas pelo menos sabia reconhecer quando pediu desculpa. deixou um sorrisinho, ainda que mal humorado, escapar dos lábios.

o que rendeu um sorriso de mostrar os dentes no rosto de pipe. "eu vou guardar as compras e fazer um jantar delicioso pra você!"

bom, pelo menos ganharia algo de volta.

Flight cancelations and hummingbirds.

Classic story of a girl meeting a guy, falling in love, girl living in a new country for 6 years then having him break up with her over facetime when she is in another country, during a pandemic after they buy a house together. 

This is how I found myself back in Birmingham, England after being away and struggling through life for three years. A beautiful and wonderful friend was marrying her beloved and they had asked me to officiate the wedding. I had previously considered the whole country of England to be dead to me but one can not say no to love. I packed my things and wrote one heck of a sermon for the wedding. While writing it I saw a hummingbird. I asked a Qu'wutsun friend of mine if hummingbirds meant anything special on this land. He said it was good luck before a trip. I felt like I had my ancestors on my side and took off to England. The trip was wonderful. Re-connecting with so many people and visiting these old places that felt like they were taken from me- it gave me the closure I didn't think I needed and didn't expect was waiting for me in the west midlands.

  Leaving was a bit trickier. There are no hummingbirds in England.

I am no stranger to airport struggles so I try to go into a travel day without too much stress, I know there will be enough coming my way! My generous and gracious friend drove me to the Manchester airport, a 90 minute drive from her lovely river side home in Yorkshire and I have to admit I was sleepy. Tired because we went mountain biking and had a BBQ the day before and it was 8am but also because the two week trip was emotionally exhausting. Connecting with some of my most precious friends for two weeks really was a dream but it had left my social and emotional battery completely flat. I had no charge nor did I have anything left in the tank to even try to start... clearly I don't know how engines work. We talked in the car, soaking up the last little bit of in-person connection that we would get for the next while and in the middle of the ride I got a message from Air Canada saying my flight was 30 minutes delayed. No problem, I thought, gives me just a bit more time for security and a coffee. We hugged good bye and I said farewell to the English sun- something that had JUST come out in my last departing days. Manchester security was a thing to behold. New signs were up around x-rays explaining all the things that were considered liquid: hair gel, lotion, mascara, solid lip balms, solid deodorant.. wait... I have my travel packing to an art and travelled only carry on for this two weeks, but that was only possible because most of my traditionally liquid things are now solid- shampoo, deodorant, moisturizer- and really if something is a solid, how can it be considered a liquid? I was too far in line to change anything and I didn't have enough room in my 1L bag anyway. I assumed secondary screening would be inevitable. But then I noticed a video screen that showed off how many other people either didn't understand the rules or were hoping to get by with a cheeky "whoops!, didn't understand that a solid was a liquid, mate!" The screen said that 90% of bags going through this queues x rays were failing and needing secondary inspection. I looked past the human metal detector and saw lines and lines and lines of bags waiting for security to go through them under the watchful eye of the less than patient Manchester travellers. 35 minutes later I waved to the security agent who lifted up my bag and asked who it belonged to, I went over and he asked if I could open it. I opened up the pocket that kept my solid deodorant and he told me they consider this a liquid. I said, I was sorry and didn't realise that. My purse had also been flagged and he asked if I had a laptop in it. I did not but I did trave with a small collapsible keyboard. I often didn't even take it out anymore at airports because no one seemed to care when I showed them. I took it out of my purse, and he wiggled it, jiggled it, tested it for explosives and said it was fine. I was then allowed on my way. I was still about 90 minutes early for the flight so I went to get a coffee. While in line I heard our Air Canada flight was delayed another hour. Hmm, guess I will get this coffee for here, I thought. Another announcement said it would be delayed another 2 hours. There was really nothing else to do but have a cookie with my coffee so I did that. I then walked to a comfy chair in front of a screen and had a sit down. Listening to a podcast and playing some silly phone game, I glanced up at the screen and apparently the flight was delayed another hour. I took out an ear phone and heard an announcement saying my Air Canada flight had been cancelled and we should make our way to an info desk. A woman beside me remarked to her travel partner that she would be 'fumin!!' if this happened to her. I glanced over and said: jeez, it's annoying, eh? She asked if I was on that flight, I said yes and she sat their stunned that I wasn't melting down. I told her there wasn't much to do, may as well see what they have to say. I walked off and joined a few hundred people standing in line that presumably started at an Air Canada desk. Another announcement told us they had no information but they would in 40 minutes. We looked at each other confused. So do we stand here? or sit down? Or something completely different. I updated friends in England that their country was obsessed with me and it looked like I would be here for a bit longer. 40(ish) minutes later we were told to go to gate 208 to disembark and eventually get our baggage. We didn't really know what that meant but we walked towards gate 208. Some people brushed past each other, racing to who knows what. This got rolled eyes and a few heavy sighs until one woman slipped past the wrong couple. The Northerners had no time for this nonsense and told her there was no point in rushing, we weren't going anywhere. She had no time or his antics and told him to piss off. He told her to piss off even louder. I looked at a stranger beside me and laughed: this is great! We got to the gate and were told to sit and wait. We twiddled our thumbs, muttered under our breathes and generally zoned out. Suddenly an Air Canada agent said we could collect our bags. After that? Who knows. We went to baggage and I promptly left since I didn't have any to wait for. There were no agents waiting for us so I thought maybe going to Departures would make sense? Perhaps there was an Air Canada desk that could help. The Air Canada check-in desk was about to be a ghost town as the agents hurried away, I quickly asked where their info desk was. They told me there wasn't one. ... okay. They said maybe ask a Tui Agent? I waited for the mass of stranded passengers to come upstairs, feeling very accomplished and cool that I would be the first person in line when they got there. I found the Tui desk and honestly I have no idea what was happening but a woman was angrily counting out pence and handing them over to the agent. It was taking ages and I was seeing no stranded passengers so I went to a different desk and asked if maybe it made sense I was up in Departures if my flight was cancelled. Bless Virgin Atlantic because the agent told me she had no idea but if this happened to Virgin they would put us on coaches to bring us to a hotel and those would pick us up downstairs at Arrivals. As I walked back to Arrivals and recognized someone who also came upstairs. She had a cute tattoo of a dog with hearts around it, I decided she would be a safe person to ask wtf. She told me someone told her to come up here and find an agent. We both went back to Tui where the strange interaction was STILL happening and waited in line. We continued to be the only people waiting and I said it was questionable we were the only people who got this right and we should go downstairs. We went downstairs and some Air Canada agents were standing in a circle. "Hi! I don't know what I'm doing" I figured acting like a complete boob would help me get as much information as possible. They asked if I was a stranded passenger and I tried not to be sarcastic. They pointed to two coaches and said we could get on. Where are we going? I asked. They did not know. I went to the first coach and asked if we just get on. The driver asked what hotel I was going to. I said I didn't know. He laughed at me and said I really should know. I pointed to the AC agent and said they told me to come here. He yelled to them that we really should know what hotel we were going to. My mood was wearing thin. Should we just get on? I asked. He walked away to make fun of the situation with the other driver. We got on the coach. England was in it's first full day of a heat wave so the bus was approximately 1000 degrees. As we all settled into the bus we remarked how we didn't know anything other than it was very warm. Would we be paying for the hotel? For food? For the coach even? Who knows?! We start to drive around airport city, past a few okay hotels and stop in the middle of a traffic circle outside the parking lot and hedge around the Delta Marriot. The coach driver opens the door. Someone says- are we here? He says, yes, and gets out to open up the baggage compartment. We all look around at each other most of us letting out exasperated laughter. This is amazing I laugh as I look around at the traffic trying to get navigate around us. We exit while being parked in the middle of this traffic circle and walk through a hole in the hedgerow, through the parking lot and into the lobby. We are welcomed by the staff and told that dinner would be from 6 to 8. I quickly head to my room to lay down and have some alone time. I turn on the TV to find either a reno show or a baking show- the only things one can watch in a hotel room- unless its morning then breakfast news or 24 hour news networks are permissible. I unpack some of my bag and find liquid eye drops, two gel lip sticks, mascara and moisturiser. All things more liquid than my solid deodorant. My phone buzzes and it's a text from Air Canada. I have a new flight! In two days. I laugh out loud.. now people will be fumin! I go to dinner and see my tattooed friend, she has made another friend and we eat together. Burgers for them, curry for me. And a complimentary glass of wine! Spare no expenses, they did! People are on their phones with baby sitters, dog sitters, cruise lines, hotels, spouses, travel agent and anyone else who will hear their pleas. I sip my wine and tell my new friends about my time in England. One is Canadian just coming from from a cruise and the other is English just going to Canada for a visit. We all feel we can take it as it is. A free night in a hotel isn't the worst thing. The next morning I wake up for breakfast, stuff myself to the gills with beans, toast, marmite and coffee. I then go back to sleep for a few hours. This two weeks had taken so much out of me, I didn’t mind this stop in purgatory. I meet my friends for lunch and we discuss our plans for the day. I am happy enough to sleep, read and use the hotel gym. None of us are particularly interested in spending 40 quid to get into city centre. I am so exhausted from my trip I really see this as a nice sleepy get away. I check out the prices in the mini bar. A can of wine is 10 quid, about 20 Canadian dollars. I stick with my free drink with dinner. Wednesday comes and we find out some passengers were sent earlier to Dublin, Europe and America so they could get to their final destinations without clogging up one flight path. It does seem that two nights in a hotel continues to be not a hardship, just weird. I ask the front desk if a coach will pick us up again or if we take the airport shuttle, I'm told a bus at 9am will pick us up for our 12:05 flight. There is a lot of chatter amongst all us stranded passengers about how bad communication is with the airline. No one knows anything unless we talk to the front desk. information trickles down like wealth is meant to. 9am comes and there is no bus. 9:10 we see a bus but it's not coming in, it's idling down the road. While it's not in a traffic circle, it's just as goofy. I go down to see if it's ours. It is. I wave to everyone and say: follow me! There is less frustration in the air but no one seems to trust we will be making it out. At every step we have been confused, left in the dark and forced to ask the poor front desk staff if they know anything. They have been so kind and added the times of the meals at the end of every single one of my queries, clearly they know my heart. My new travel friends both seem nervous about security and timing. I assure them it will be annoying but we will not miss this flight. I pack as well I as I can but my deodorant won't fit in my small clear plastic litre bag so I again am okay with waiting, this time the screen tells me that only 5% of bags are going through secondary screening. The agent asks me to open my bag, I make the same joke about my solid being more solid than liquid and apologise again. This one is as impervious to my charm as the last. Me and my stranded friends are on our way. We get a coffee and head to the gate. We are told our plane is having some issues and will be delayed 30 minutes. Then we are told there is a longer delay. There is then an announcement that anyone who is a stranded passenger should go to another gate as there is another Air Canada flight leaving just after ours. Bewildered, 50 of us walk to the other gate and ask what is going on. The gate agents tell us we are at the wrong gate. We tell them we know, but were told to come here. They tell us we were not. I tell them it's improbable that 50 of us misheard the announcement. They get on a walkie talkie and confirm with our original gate. We wait 5 minutes as there is rapid fire walkie talkie conversations. Then an agent from this new gate stomps to our original gate. After another 5 minutes of what looks like some emotional conversation he comes back and said there was never an announcement we need to go back. We go back and the gate agent loudly tells another passenger she never said that. There are a few remarks about gaslighting but we sit back down. The maintenance something something gets resolved and we start boarding. We all hold our breathes and after another 20 minute delay, the doors close and we start to head to Canada.

And that is the story of why I slept for three days after visiting the United Kingdom in September and why I think we should introduce hummingbirds to every country in the world.

Hellsite Nostalgia Tour 2023 Day 188

Devil May Care/The Angels Take Manhattan

“Devil May Care”

Plot Description: Dean shocks Sam when he opens the Impala’s trunk to reveal he’s kidnapped the King of Hell. Meanwhile, Abaddon rises with plans to take over his role.

Would I Survive the First Five Minutes??: oh, we START with Dean dragging in a corpse, but it doesn’t seem like anyone else is dying

I really hope she has even ONE episode where she doesn’t get brutalized…

Ok maybe it wasn’t Dean dragging in a corpse, just some shmuck recruited by Abaddon. Love that ❤️ she’s back

I don’t like whatever’s going on in this bunker now. You don’t get to keep both Kevin AND Crowley there

Honestly, yeah. That’s probably the best way to torture Crowley: leave him alone in a dark room with no one to make snide quips to

I would 100% accept her as queen. She’s as cruel as she is beautiful

Abaddon is having so much fun and I love that for her

I can’t believe Kevin 1) chose Solo as his fake last name (I actually can) and 2) basically blackmailed the military officer

ABADDON HAS NEVER DONE ANYTHING WRONG EVER. Everything she’s done is completely right

Nooo…honestly, it was inevitable, but you shouldn’t have left Kevin and Crowley alone in the bunker. He’s just a KID, and Crowley’s a centuries old demon. I can’t even blame him if he gets manipulated into freeing Crowley

PLEASE. I’m begging. Just ONE episode. A little holy water splash is fine but she’s already been through so much at the Winchesters’ hands

I……….she could possess me any day. I wouldn’t want to actually do the things she’s threatening to make Dean do should she possess him, but the way she talks about it 🥰🥰🥰 I’m very normal about her

I still don’t trust Ezekiel.

Fuuuuck. It does look like…oh, Crowley’s still here. But where’s Kevin??

Mmmmmmmmmmmm, he’s gonna think that this is Dean only needing him because he’s useful…..omg, ok, so turns out if Kevin cries, I cry. He’s needed cuz he’s FAMILY. Eat your heart out, Fast and Furious franchise

Godddd, when will the secrets STOP?!

“The Angels Take Manhattan”

Plot Description: the Angels are back, and this time they’re taking over Manhattan

This little girl’s got no business playing peekaboo with a Weeping Angel. The fuck

Wait. That’s not how they work. You disappear from your timeline…you don’t…you don’t make it back to your same timeline, do you?? And meet your old self? But…I guess…wibbly wobbly timey wimey

I’ve been to that rock they’re sitting on.

Oh. Oh Rory. Oh dear, sweet Rory who has apparently never been on the internet????? “Only [the Doctor] could fancy someone in a book”??? Good thing ao3 is down. It’s completely blow his mind to bits. Then again, just send him to any character tag here and same difference

And I had my picture taken at that fountain

Of course the protagonist of the book is actually River. (I remembered the author even now but I forgot the main character was River)

That giggling though. Creepy

Omg. Okay, I like all the weird time travely stuff. It’s one thing to go to one destination but it’s another to get a book from the past and then influence that book by going even further into the past. Just. Delightful

Ohhhhhhh the Doctor’s freak out about saying goodbye to Amy…telling River to get out of the Angel’s grasp without breaking her own wrist, to change the future that’s already been written. AND SHE WANTED TO LET HIM BELIEVE SHE HAD 😭😭😭

I can’t believe Amy just had to watch Rory die again…this time as an old man

Amy’s love for Rory is so beautiful and endearing, and it’s so dumb they ever made us doubt it

OMG YOU CANNOT MAKE HER WATCH HIM DIE AGAIN. TWICE?? IN ONE EPISODE??

I know this is supposed to be an emotional moment but the music is killing the mood

Except now we’re back in that graveyard……and I know what’s gonna happen and I hate it

It was the right thing but it doesn’t make it less heartbreaking. She’ll take any chance to see Rory again. Every time

Donna🤝Amy: gingers who tell the Doctor to not travel alone

If you are thinking of traveling to Budapest, Hungary, you are in the right place. Budapest, the capital of Hungary, has a very rich history dating back to the millennium BC. Hungarian tribes who came to Eastern Europe towards the end of the 9th century established the Hungarian Kingdom. Once even part of the Roman Empire, Hungary established its own kingdom after the empire collapsed. It later became part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. During the reform period (1825-1848), the city experienced its first development boom. The Hungarian National Museum and the Chain Bridge connecting the two banks of the Danube were also built during this period. With the unification of the three cities of Buda, Pest and Old Buda in 1873, an unprecedented development took place in Europe. After the Second World War, the country, which was dominated by the communist regime, passed to the parliamentary regime in 1989 and was declared a republic. About a third of native Hungarians live outside Hungary. In particular, the native Hungarians living in Romania had to leave the country during the war. [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCJ7Us_R7pI[/embed] In the 1960s and 1970s, a major construction work was started, especially around the castle, with the opening of the Elisabeth Bridge to traffic, the development of the underground network, the renewal of the old city centre. The city has started to develop in terms of tourism with the hotels opened both around the castle and on the banks of the Danube River. Soon there was a surge in tourism, known as 'goulash communism'. Visitors came to the city from Eastern and Western Europe as well as the USA. Europe's first underground railway network was built in the city, which currently has a population of two million. The country, which joined the European Union in 2004, started to develop after this process. Today's Budapest was formed in 1873 as a result of the coming together of Buda, Pest and Old Buda. The Buda part of the city was established on the hill to the west of the Danube River and forms the historical district of the city. In Budapest, which consists of 23 regions, the regions are also numbered apart from their names. The city's parks, the UNESCO-protected Andrassy Avenue and the Opera House were built together. Heroes Square and the Hungarian Art Museum were built specifically for the 1000th anniversary of the foundation of Hungary. In the same period, the Parliament Building was built at a great expense. The city, which suffered a lot of material and moral losses after the Second World War, was in a very bad condition in the 20th century. The city, where most of the original buildings were destroyed, has been spectacularly rebuilt. However, traces of bullets from the war are still found on some buildings. The buildings around Buda Castle, which is the most popular and historical part of the city, bear the traces of baroque architecture. The historical texture around the castle has never been touched or destroyed. Hosting many festivals, the city has been recognized as the largest arts and cultural center in Central Europe. The Budapest Spring Festival, which attracts visitors from many parts of the world, has been held since 1981. Budapest's largest museums and art venues are always opened with this festival. The festival is celebrated not only in the concert halls of the city, but also in parks and squares. Another big festival is the Budapest Summer Festival. It attracts enthusiasts with a rich cultural program for 12 weeks. Especially in the open-air theater on Margaret Island, very special opera and theater works are staged. Varosmajor Open Air Theater is located in one of Buddha's favorite public parks. In the venue where the famous names of the music world meet, Hungary's traveling theaters are also staged as well as Budapest theatres. The world-famous Sziget Festival is one of the biggest popular music and cultural events in Europe. The Sziget Festival attracts tens of thousands of international visitors to Budapest every August.

With its unique atmosphere and location, Sziget Festival is one of the most popular events in Budapest. In the country where many famous scientists grew up, the famous Hungarian inventor Erno Rubik, the creator of the Rubik cube, is one of the scientists who grew up in Budapest. Budapest has one of the most important spa cultures in Europe. There are many hot springs and baths in the city with Roman, Greek and Turkish architecture. Known as the 'City of Baths', Budapest is the only city in the world rich in thermal waters with healing properties. Budapest is a city where you can enjoy traditional baths dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. Rudas, Kiraly and Veli Beige baths, which are among the best baths, are from the Ottoman Period. In Budapest, where there are very good universities, the education period of universities varies between 3 and 4 years. The oldest university in Hungary, the University of Pecs, was founded in 1367. Where Is Budapest? Let us share with you some of the things you need to know when traveling to Budapest. Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is located in Central Europe. Budapest, Hungary's largest and most populous city, is the seventh largest city in the European Union. When To Go To Budapest? A humid climate prevails in Budapest, one of the most popular cities in Central Europe. In the city, where the temperature in summer is close to twenty-five degrees, the winter months are quite cold. Visiting the city in the winter months, when the temperature is below zero degrees, will make it very difficult to travel. In the city, which receives the most precipitation in autumn, popular periods are divided into two. The number of tourists increases exponentially until the end of the summer months in the city, which started to become active with the rising temperatures in March. Especially the months of June, July and August are the most crowded and popular periods in the city. However, those who want to enjoy Budapest in a calmer and slightly cooler weather can also prefer the period from March to May. Best Places To Visit In Budapest Budapest, a large part of which is under the status of UNESCO World Heritage List, is known as one of the most beautiful cities to be seen in Europe. Defined as the “Queen of the Danube” from thermal spas to museums, Budapest has magnificent locations that will appeal to all kinds of travelers. We have compiled places to see in Budapest, the pearl of Hungary, with the magical atmosphere of the Danube River, which has inspired many artists. Buda Castle The place where the Buda Castle, called the castle, is located, is a cultural point with the oldest history of Budapest. This hill on the Danube is definitely a must-see when you come to Budapest. In the northwest of the town of Kale is the Hungarian Military History Museum, which contains 28,000 artifacts from the 15th century. After the museum, it would be a good choice to visit the Music Museum, which is very nearby, and see the works in neo-baroque style. There are also very famous caves in Budapest, which is rich in natural riches. The cave, which was accessed from the Labyrinth entrance of Buda Castle, was later strengthened. The cave, some of which have wells where red wine is produced, has a rather mysterious appearance. There are many historical artifacts and monuments in Trinity Square on Tarnok Street, parallel to the castle. The baroque-style Trinity Monument in the square was built in 1691 in memory of those who lost their lives as a result of an epidemic. This monument, the Buddha Monument, which represents the center of the Old City of Buda, lost its function when Buda and Pest were combined. The Hungarian wine house in the cellar here offers its guests the best wines of Hungary. Mathias Church, located in the Castle Square, has gained a very good appearance as a result of the help of famous Hungarian artists for its restoration. Famous Hungarian artists such as Karoly Lotz and Bertalan Szekely participated in the restoration carried out in 1895-1903.

The Fishermen's Castle was built in the last period when the Mathias Church was renovated. In the castle, which has 7 towers, each tower represents a Hungarian tribal leader. The reason why the Fishermen's Castle was built is that fishing was done near the Castle Square in ancient times. Every corner of the Castle Square, where the history of Buddha began, is worth a historical monument. While visiting this place, it is almost like a journey in history. Castle Square is one of the must-see places in Budapest. Thermal Pools In Budapest, which has natural thermal pools besides its caves, the pools are the focus of attention of local and foreign tourists. Budapest is built on a hillside consisting of about 125 thermal springs. These waters, which were never used until Roman times, started to be used with the Ottoman Period. These thermal pools, which have been found even in nightclubs in recent years, are generally used for healing purposes. There are many baths from the Ottoman Period such as Kiraly, Rudas and Veli Beige. These baths, where the old architecture is preserved, are very popular. Consisting of thermal baths and pools, Szechenyi Bath has 18 separate pools. These are thermal pools, steam baths, fitness pools. All pools are suitable for both men and women and children over 14 can also use it. One of the Ottoman baths, Kiraly Bath attracts the attention of many local and foreign tourists. In recent years, this distinction has been abolished in the bath, where men and women were served in separate sections in the past. The Kiraly Bath, with its building showing traces of Ottoman architecture, is open seven days a week. Most of the baths offer serious medical treatments as well as services such as massages and a red wine bath. You must specify these preferences when purchasing tickets. Each of the baths, which are quite clean and popular, has a different architectural structure. Some of the baths, whose opening hours vary according to the days, are only open at weekends. Baths can be used for about two hours on weekdays and one and a half hours on weekends. There are also special terms of use that vary accordingly. Budapest Fine Arts Museum With a history of hundreds of years, Budapest is a very rich city in terms of historical artifacts and works of art. The Fine Arts Museum is just one of Budapest's museums. In the museum, where the largest collections of Old Masters are exhibited, there are also paintings by famous Italian, Spanish and Dutch artists. There are also high-ceilinged exhibition halls where large paintings are displayed with its magnificent and impressive building dating from the 19th century. In the museum, where smaller works are exhibited in custom-made cabinets, there are also large halls that have been carefully prepared in terms of architecture, such as the Renaissance Hall. After hosting Hungary's collection prepared with painting, drawing and special style printing techniques in 1870, the museum, where Egyptian art works and antiques are also exhibited, also includes an old sculpture gallery, an old painter's gallery and modern collections. The palace next to the museum is the city's contemporary art museum and hosts many traveling exhibitions. He donated a collection of Hungarian artist Victor Vasarely's most important works to the museum. Known as the best of the museums in Eastern Europe, the Budapest Fine Arts Museum attracts the attention of tourists. It was merged with the National Hungarian Gallery in 2008. The combination of these spaces, which have works of different styles, drew quite a reaction. This project, for which a very high budget was allocated, was not accepted by the Hungarian art authorities after it was realized. The museum, located in Heroes Square, was closed to the public in order to be restored in 2015. There are also paintings from the 13th century in the museum, which is expected to open in March 2018. Danube River Cruise The Danube

River, whose Hungarian name is Duna, starts from the north of Budapest and continues to the south, and its width is about 640 meters. Reaching the shores of 10 countries, the Danube is the soul of Central Europe. Home to countless cultures and civilizations, the river is an ancient trade route and buffer zone. The Danube is the second largest river in Europe after the Volga. The Danube River, which determined the borders of the Roman Empire, served as a bridge connecting many nations. The river, which has inspired many artists, has also gained world fame with its wines. There are many things to do to enjoy the view of this majestic river. It would be a good choice to stroll along the banks of Buda and Pest of the Danube before meeting the stunning architecture of the city. Steel statue shoes, located on the banks of the Danube River near the Hungarian parliament building, were made in memory of the Jews who lost their lives during the Second World War. The monument with 60 pairs of shoes was designed by director Can Togay and sculptor Gyula Pauer and completed in 2005. Boat trips are another way to explore the Danube. There are numerous tourist boat trips in Budapest. Trains from Vigado and Buda on the Pest coast stop by the city's many beautiful shores. Guidance is provided in many languages on tours organized by many excursion companies. The ships that cruise the entire Danube River also offer the opportunity to stop and tour in places such as Margaret Island. You can also taste Hungarian wines on private Danube Boat cruises offered by Taste Hungary. Budapest Parliament Building A magnificent example of neo-gothic architecture, the House of Parliament is over 100 years old, combining Renaissance and Baroque characters. Located in Kossuth Square, the Parliament Building is located on the Pest side of the city. With its style that smells of history and art, it is a must-see for every visitor to Budapest. The design of the building began in 1880 and it was officially inaugurated in 1896 on the 1000th anniversary of the founding of Hungary. Budapest Parliament Building, completed in 1904, is famous for being the third largest parliament building in the world, with 691 rooms, 20 kilometers of stairs, and a height of 96 meters, which is the same as the St. Stephen's Basilica. No expense was spared in the construction of the building and approximately 40 kilos of 22-23 carat gold were used for decoration. Welcoming around 700,000 visitors each year, the Parliament Building is one of Europe's most impressive and busiest tourist attractions. With a tour that lasts about 50 minutes, you can witness the luxury of seeing the privileged rooms of the Parliament.

Budapest Fisherman's Bastion Undoubtedly one of Budapest's most popular tourist attractions, the Fisherman's Bastion was designed as a watchtower in the 19th century to offer the best panoramic view in the city.

The majestic building, with its imposing 7 towers on the hills of Buda, is known more as a historical Budapest tourist attraction than a rooftop bar. With its ornate design, romantic Danube River and unique views of Budapest, it is not difficult to understand that the Fisherman's Bastion is the most popular tourist attraction recommended in the city. Although its architecture, which resembles a trench that feels like it was built to be protected during the war, strikes the eye at first, its modern structure was never designed with this in mind. The Fisherman's Bastion, built between 1895 and 1902, is one of the must-visit places in Budapest with its appearance as if it were straight out of Walt Disney movies. Inspired by medieval times, Bastion refers specifically to the early medieval times (of Neo Roman origin). The venue, which is open day and night all year round, continues to serve with its cafe and restaurant. With its dazzling view, the Fisherman's Bastion is waiting to enchant its visitors with its refreshing cocktails, beers and wines in summer and, on the contrary, heart-warming drinks in winter. A romantic and private dinner, a touristic visit, relaxation with a sip of drink, you can find all of these at the Fisherman's Bastion. Designed by the Hungarian architect Frigyes Schulek to create an airy and accessible space, the Fisherman's Bastion represents the 7 tribes that make Hungary Hungary. Nowadays, this magnificent structure is mostly enjoyed by tourists. Fisherman's Bastion, where many organizations are held, is the point-and-shoot place for those who want to see the city from a bird's eye view. The Fisherman's Bastion has a view of the Danube River coastline, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List, as well as the view of Buda Castle.

St. Stephen's Basilica St. Stephen's Basilica (Budapest Cathedral), built in memory of Stephen, the first king of Hungary, is the largest church in the country with a capacity of 8,500 people. Although it is a 'Cathedral' in the architectural sense, in 1931, Pope XI. It was given the title of 'Little Basilica' by Pius. Construction of the basilica began in 1851 and was inaugurated in 1906 by the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph. The collapse of the dome during its construction in 1868 caused the basilica to be completed late. After the architect Jozsef Hild, who designed the original plan, died in 1867, one of Europe's leading architects, Miklos Ybl, took over the business. Ybl, who designed new plans after the collapse of the dome in 1868, unfortunately could not see the completion of the basilica when he died in 1891. But all the plans were implemented as he planned. St. Stephen's Basilica, designed in Neoclassical style by the first architect Hild, was completed in a Neo-Renaissance style in line with the plans of the second architect, Ybl. The height of the dome is 96 meters, just like the Budapest Parliament Building. The fact that the basilica has the same height as the Parliament symbolizes the balance between church and state in Hungary. The first king of Hungary, St. Stephen is the patron saint of the church. His mummified right hand is hidden in a glass bell on the left side of the main altar. The interior of the basilica, decorated by the most famous artists of that time, is truly worth seeing. The most important work of art is the mosaic-based oil painting of Gyula Benczur.

Margaret Island Margaret Island, which we can define as Budapest's Central Park, is an island located in the Danube River between Buda and Pest. Margaret Island, known as 'Rabbit Island' in the Middle Ages, was used as a noble hunting reserve. Following the Mongol invasion, Hungarian King Bela established a nunnery on the island and vowed to send his daughter Margaret there if he could save the country from the Mongol invasion. After the Mongols left the country, King Bela kept his promise and sent his 11-year-old daughter Margaret to the monastery, so the island was named after Margaret. It is possible to reach the island by boats that tour the Danube River. Another option is to take the tram number 6 to Margit Bridge and arrive at the island after a short walk. Located between the Arpad Bridge and the Margaret Bridge, the island spans an area of 96.5 hectares, 2.5 kilometers long and 500 meters wide. If you are traveling with children or your family, walking around the island may not be a good option. Therefore, you can choose various vehicles with rental options on the island. You can rent a bicycle from the operators at the end of Margaret Bridge or try different options such as golf carts and electric scooters. Now the island has become a public park connecting the city with the Margaret Bridge. Margaret Island is an ideal place for the locals of Budapest to spend the afternoon relaxing, exercising and walking. The island, surrounded by greenery, offers a little escape for those who are overwhelmed by the noise of the city.

Szechenyi Chain Bridge Beautiful during the day, beautiful at night! Let's start with the fairy tale story of the bridge that connects Buda and Pest, which is divided by the Danube River. British engineer William Tierney Clark, who built the Szechenyi Chain Bridge in Budapest, was so confident in his work that he said that if any fault was found on the bridge, he would throw himself off the bridge. One day, a little girl started to cry because the lion figures on the bridge had no language. Learning of this mistake, Clark threw himself from the bridge into the arms of the Danube, as he had promised. However, since the bridge was not very high and the weather was hot, engineer Clark managed to escape unharmed. Completed in 1849 and the oldest of seven bridges over the Danube, the Szechenyi Chain Bridge is 375 meters long and 16 meters wide. This unique bridge is located in the middle of Budapest, between Szechenyi Istvan Square (formerly Roosevelt Square) and Clark Adam Square.
