Budapest - Architecture and Urban - Travel The Hungarian capital was visited and its attractions. It was cold, But with his Budapest Buda, Pest and Obuda (- the three parts were combined in the 19th century to the present Budapest) was worth a trip.
Once again, more revealed (e) to me that a city is defined by architecture.
Already the cover of the battered guidebook promised "Budapest: museums, palaces, churches, architecture, galleries, hotels, tour schedules, restaurants" -
was thus an architecture tour, a so-called Architektour is replaced. When thinking along but you can see already that, of the 8 above-cited terms in the cover 7 with architecture have to do (directly), the word "tour plans" and this leads to (meeting with) City means which can be closed again at the architecture approach. So much for the importance of architecture and town and city tourism, the city self-marketing to the outside. The importance of the city definition of the picture postcard image of the architecture of the city was not written in this blog before.
Very simple:
architecture defines the city. Architecture city. impressions, information, as described thoughts of mine can be found on http://budapest-reise.blogspot.com/ Budapest is a journey, or perhaps several trips ... A highlight of the trip was the Orthodox synagogue in the Jewish Quarter.
The eminent Viennese Sezessionsrchitekt Otto Wagner, the architect of the Orthodox synagogue in the Jewish quarter at the Rumbach Utca. Again, this synagogue is created in the Byzantine-Moorish style. This style was due to the source close to the Judaism of the synagogue in the Moorish room design very beliebt.Auch here, the idea of the eight-division of the design elements found in the dome and in the flower ornament (see also: large synagogue in detail). To question
why this is such a cultural void (inside: like a construction site; falls outside the facade, the stairs ...)
