00:00You're just walking, but you can see a picturesque view.
00:05That's because of the magnificent architecture that Hungary is proud of.
00:10We've answered the virtual tour.
00:12Let's watch the Best of Budapest with Darlene Kai.
00:18History can be seen in its magnificent architecture and beautiful tourist attractions.
00:26This is Budapest, or Budapest for the locals.
00:29The capital of Hungary.
00:35From Manila, the 15-hour flight from the airport to Lucerne
00:39serves as one of the gateways of Central Europe.
00:43It's worth it because apart from the cool breeze,
00:46you can see a different side of Europe here.
00:50The iconic Hungarian Parliament Building.
00:53From the outside, it's much higher than most of the more modern and simple government buildings of other countries.
01:01And when you enter, you can see the Regal, if not the Gate,
01:05and the beautiful designs inside.
01:13And the backdrop outside is really a postcard.
01:17That's where the Fisherman's Bastion is,
01:19where you can see the overlooking view of Budapest.
01:25The churches here are also beautiful, like this Matthias Church.
01:31The bridges here are also iconic, like the Chain Bridge and Liberty Bridge.
01:39And at night, Budapest's beauty is getting even better.
01:43The houses have a golden glow.
01:48You can see different kinds of beauty here in Budapest at night.
01:51I'm here at a river cruise on the Danube River,
01:54and you can really see the beauty of the Parliament Building behind me.
02:03That's why Budapest's tourists are not surprised.
02:07It's such a beautiful city.
02:10Since this is my very first time,
02:12I would say that I would suggest to my friends,
02:15whoever wants to see, to get a sightseeing of this beautiful city.
02:21Being here, it's actually like living my dream,
02:25and I really love it here in Budapest, and also coming from Malaysia.
02:31Malaysia itself is a melting pot of different races, different cultures,
02:35and it's the same here.
02:37If you're tired, you can eat Hungarian delicacies first,
02:41like this chimney cake, which is a thin slice of bread,
02:44which is cut in a cylinder, and roasted.
02:46You can choose flavors like cinnamon, vanilla, and walnut.
02:49It's nice. It's crispy. It's like a pretzel.
02:54Yeah.
02:55With Nutella and cinnamon.
02:57And also, I like the tasteful of cinnamon.
03:02It's good. It's a good snack.
03:06The stomach is full, but the eyes are still full.
03:09This is where the beauty of culture, architecture, and history are combined.
