Freezing Budapest

I have always thought Norway, positioned in the far north at the fringe of the world, was a really cold place. But travelling through central Europe made me realise that there are places that both match, and beat, my home country when it comes to miserable weather.

But even though Budapest was not the best strategic choice weather wise, it was certainly a splendid city with its mix of the historically grand and the trendy new. And the city's many natural thermal springs gave even this frozen Norseman a chance of heating up. 

















Fun fact: Buda is on the left side of the river and Pest is on the right.

Yes, it kinda died in the rain. It was more like a puzzle at the end.
