This morning we took part in a walking tour of Pest which included all the major sites and gave us a great overview of this side of the city.
The afternoon was spent in the ‘House of Terror’ museum which is a museum about the history of the Hungarian Nazi and Russian occupation and the revolutions to revoke these regimes. This museum is housed in the original Hungarian Nazi party headquarters where prisoners were kept, tortured, and executed. The displays and atmosphere are so well constructed that it is spine chilling and tear jerking all at once.
We also explored Hero Square and the Central Markets (mainly fresh produce... we purchased some Hungarian sausage) - both worth a visit.
