From one beautiful building to the other: the Castle Hill, which towers over the Danube, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also home to the famous Buda Castle, a splendidly beautiful 200-room palace built to protect the city from Mongols. Castle Hill registered massive damages during the Second World War. However, it was restored during the subsequent years. The restoration process saw the inclusion of the Hungarian National Gallery in the main wing and the Budapest History Museum on the south side. #travel #budapest #castle #unesco #hungary
