Night view of the Chain Bridge and Pest from Castle Hill in Buda, Budapest

The image captures an evocative night view of the Széchenyi Chain Bridge from Castle Hill in Buda. In the foreground, the Castle garden with the historic funicular is visible, while the illuminated bridge crosses the Danube towards the Pest shore. The long photographic exposure transforms vehicular traffic into light trails crossing the bridge structure. In the background, the illuminated dome of St. Stephen's Basilica and the buildings of the Pest district create a recognizable skyline. This elevated perspective allows appreciation of the strategic position of the bridge that has united the two souls of the Hungarian capital since 1849.
