The Hungarian capital Budapest is in fact two cities, Buda and Pest, divided by the river Danube. The two parts of the city could not be more different, as Aleix describes in this weekâs guest post.Special thanks to Pedro Szekely for the amazing Budapest photography featured on this post. I plan to visit the country soon and can only hope to capture shots as elegant as these :).hether you prefer the more photogenic Buda or the more modern Pest, rent apartments in Budapest and enjoy these two âcitiesâ for an experience thatâs different to anything the West can offer.
