Chain bridge in front, Parliament building covered in sunlight on the right and Margaret island on the left
Hello to all my friends and followers on this platform, it's good to talk to you again! :) I just came back from a six day road trip to Prague in beautiful Czech republic with few of my great friends. Along the way we stopped at some must visit spots like Budapest, Karlovy Vary and Brno. We had a wonderful time in these extraordinarily beautiful places so let's dive in and look at some of the moments I captured with the camera.
The first stop is Budapest - it is a 4-hour car drive away from Belgrade and about third of the way between Belgrade and Prague. It is the city I'm very familiar with. This was the 7th time I'm visiting it, truly a city that has made me fall in love with it and return often.
Needless to say everyone in the group was mesmerized as we walked through the famous areas of the city. In part due to beautiful architecture and clean parks, but mostly because of the relaxed vibe that spreads among people and through the streets.
Having been there multiple times, I've taken the role of a tour guide and made sure the friends get to visit the must-see standout spots. Those include the magnificent Parliament building, Buddha castle and Fisherman's bastion on the hill, Margaret island and of course crossing as many bridges as possible.
The oldest and most famous Chain bridge is still under construction and closed to pedestrians so we could only watch it from the distance. We started at the St. Stephen's basilica, crossed the Elizabeth bridge and climbed the Buddha hill on the other side.
As you know, I always focus on street photography, especially at the places I've visited often. So I'm always on the lookout for interesting human subjects. Hope you enjoy this first part of the trip. Next time we're closing things off in Budapest and heading to Karlovy Vary. :) Stay tuned.

What a beautiful travel experience you had. I can't wait see the rest from Karlovy Vary. The architectural designs of the buildings are amazing especially the Buddha castle. The boy sitting by the fountain was an impressive shot. I love it. Budapest is indeed a beautiful town. I hope and would love to visit some day. Thank you for sharing your amazing pictures.

I'm glad you enjoyed the journey so far! Beautiful part of Europe, with those classical and gothic style buildings. Takes you back in time. Definitely worth visiting.
The place is so interesting. First and foremost, the street bookstore caught my attention. I love the concept of having a bookstore along the street; it was a clever idea. Next, the faces of the people in the pictures showed that they were nice and willing to guide and help you whenever you're lost. Lastly, I like the architectural design of the buildings.
You've mentioned some things that I like the most as well - bookstores, impressive architecture, easy-going people... Very interesting city!
If I would describe the place in only a word, that would be "mesmerizing". What a beautiful Prague. I have also seen another Hiver earlier sharing about a different angle of Prague with its blooming flowers. Indeed you had a great time with your friends. How I wish I could explore here one day. I so love the architecture of the Basilica and the castle there. Have safe travels and more priceless moments like this.
Thank you so much! The place is mesmerizing indeed, although one correction - we are still not in Prague, this is Budapest which is along the way to our main destination so we had to visit it as well. :) Both cities are beautiful in their own way. Hope you get to see them some day!
Awww, I hope I could visit such mesmerizing place my friend. You are most welcome and the pleasure is mine. it always feel so good to see beautiful travel blogs like this. Have safe travels and more priceless moments to share. Best regards.
Great images, thank you for sharing. Heard much about beauty of Budapest, hope to go there one day. When I was in Belgrade in 2011, I unfortunately had no visa to visit Hungary and, after that, I was in Asia, then again, and again too far away.
Although I hold Belgrade in my heart, Budapest is much more beautiful city. Absolute must-see! :)
Wow Prague, I’ve always loved this city! I have never been though, I see glimpse of it from movies every now and then but it always captures my soul Everytime it comes up on my screen. I know I will visit soon.
And lovely pictures😍😍.
Thanks for sharing.
Prague is a beautiful city! The pictures are still from Budapest which is our first stop - the city reminds of Prague a bit, but they have very different vibes. :)
Oh okay, Thanks for clearing that up.
Beautiful pictures still.
The photos are excellent, especially the moment you captured so well my friend. There is a different story in all the photos you share. My favorite is probably the kid doing the bottle flip challenge haha.
Haha yes, nice that you noticed. :) So many interesting moments to photograph.
Just last year, in December, I visited Budapest and what I dreamed of most was Prague.
Both European capitals are fantastic, just be prepared to explore them.
Both cities are beautiful. Even though Prague is a bit more majestic, we preferred the vibe of the Budapest slightly, it's a bit more relaxed. But you can't go wrong with either. :)
Each city has its own specific charm and yes, you're absolutely right, both are amazing.
All of your photographs are very nice,
I like all of them, especially the huge buildings along with some wonderful statues. excellent
