Budapest - a waltz along the Danube

Statue of Prince Eugene of Savoy in front of the Royal Palace. Unlike Vienna, Hungary was occupied by the Ottomans several times (and we can thank them for the thermal baths). At 23, Eugene made a name for himself at the siege of Buda against the Ottomans. Compare with his statue in Vienna's Heldenplatz
