Saturday 15 November-On our first real day in Budapest we decided to cross the danube and explore the castle district in Buda. We had a bit of trouble finding the metro station closest to our hotel and ended up passing by a very crowded flea market. However, we finally managed to find the metro and the ticket guards helped us figure out how to purchase our tickets from the automated machine which can be used in either Hungarian or English. The metro was station was very clean and the trains were fashioned, blue with large silver numbers. There were few stops but we took the metro under the river to the Buda side. The trains are also quite deep and the escalator consequently are quite steep and long. However as we emerged from the metro we were greeted with a fantastic view of parliament across the river.
