Heroes' Square

Budapest is the capital and the largest city of Hungary.

A.
Flanked by the Palace of Fine Arts and the Palace of Art and situated at the entrance to the City Park. Budapest's Heroes' Square stands in honor and memory of the great leaders in Hungary's history.

B
Soaring above the monument, you'll see the Millennial Column, standing 118-feet-tall and topped with a statue of the Archangel Gabriel, meant to be a symbol of the Roman Catholic Church.

I love the clear bright pictures of the Heroes' Square. 

Guess which picture is my desktop background now.

    Your photos are always nice, clear and beautiful. Mine often appeared blurr when I used the template to frame the photos together.

    I am wondering where to find money and so many days leave to visit Europe?!?!?!?!....

When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people.
