My husband and I live in Bel Air. In April, we stayed four nights in Budapest during an Eastern European vacation. The city and its people were captivating and it was a great experience for us to see its post-Communist beauty. This is a photo of the Parliament Building on the banks of the Danube River. Completed in 1896, this is Hungary's largest building, and as a Parliament building, is second in size only to Great Britain's Parliament in London. Elegant riverboats like the one in the foreground cruise up and down the Danube regularly with stops along its banks, including Budapest.
