The Great Market Hall in Budapest was built in 1897, and is the largest of all Budapest market halls. The market is not just for tourists, it’s a place where locals shop daily, Architecturally it is a protected city monument, and is one of Europe’s finest market halls. It is an airy orange and yellow brick building, full of steel beams and light flooding in through enormous windows.



After our walk around the market the sun was setting across the river as we made our way to Liberty Bridge, the third and shortest bridge of Budapest. It was built for the Millennium World Exhibition in 1896, its original name being Francis Joseph Bridge.
