A weekend is definitely less for Budapest , but if it is really no time more, a walk at the Parliament both inside and outside and Hero’s Square and the recently renewed Castle Garden Bazaar and Castle District would be indispensable. I believe that day would be quite packed.

Usually I don’t use motto. However nowadays due to many changes around me, also in the business I may remind myself of one I have read somewhere: Whenever the winds of changes are blowing, the ones with doubts would build walls but the optimists are stretching sails.

( Amikor a valtozas szelei fujnak, a ketkedok falakat huznak fol, az optimistak pedig vitorlakat. )
