Exploring Budapest's Fisherman's Bastion: A Neo-Gothic Masterpiece with a great view!

The Fisherman's Bastion, also known as the Halászbástya in Hungarian, is a historic and iconic landmark located in Budapest, Hungary. It is a neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque style terrace that sits atop Buda Castle Hill on the banks of the Danube River.

It is located near the Buda Castle, in the 1st district of Budapest.

The Fishermen's Bastion's main façade, above the river Danube, is about 140 meters long.

The Fisherman's Bastion was built between 1895 and 1902, and it was designed by Frigyes Schulek, who was inspired by the early medieval architecture of Hungary. The terrace is composed of seven towers, which represent the seven Hungarian tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin in the 9th century.

The terrace is open to visitors year-round, and admission is free for the lower-level courtyards and the upper-level terraces. However, there is a fee to enter the upper-level towers, which is well worth it for the stunning views. The Fisherman's Bastion is one of Budapest's most popular tourist attractions, and it is a must-see for anyone visiting the city.

The Fisherman's Bastion offers panoramic views of Budapest, including the Danube River, the Chain Bridge, and the Hungarian Parliament Building. Visitors can climb the towers and enjoy the beautiful views, or relax on one of the many benches on the terrace.

Since 1987 it has been one of Budapest's World Heritage Sites as part of the Várkerület District.
