Fisherman’s Bastion was my favourite place on Castle Hill in Budapest. It’s a unique looking structure, built in neo-gothic and neo-romanesque styles, different from anything else you will see in the city. Fisherman’s Bastion was erected behind Matthias Church, on the spot where a guild of fishermen defended the city from invasion during the Middle Ages.
Today, the terrace is a great viewpoint for admiring the Pest side of the city, especially the Parliament building.
