About the Hungarian Holocaust
By Agnes Kaposi
Budapest is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Its main feature is the blue Danube which divides it into two distinct halves, knitted into a whole by an array of gracefully arched bridges. Its spectacular art nouveau buildings, hot spas, famous cuisine, vibrant cultural life, elegant cafés and restaurants offer a veritable paradise to tourists who flock to this metropolis from all corners of the world. Visitors ride up the funicular to Castle Hill.
