About Fisherman’s Bastion
Fisherman’s Bastion looks medieval, but it was built at the turn of the 20th century as a grand viewing terrace, with seven towers that recall the seven Hungarian tribes. From its arches the view sweeps across the Danube to the Parliament and the whole of Pest. Come early in the morning to have it almost to yourself.
