OK boys and girls time for a little geography and politics lesson.
regarding Budapest (Hungarian ['budɒpɛʃt] is the capital city of Hungary
Firstly Three towns—Pest, Buda, and Óbuda—combined in 1873 to form the capital of newly autonomous Hungary. Hungarians use the nickname “Pest” to refer to the city.
I discovered that Pest is the larger part and forms the east of the city
so after consulting this little map
I deduced that in the beautiful, large river view I displayed before Buda is on the left and Pest on the err umm right.
Similarly in this other nice Buda-Pest by night picture
(No I do not know what happenned to Obuda either perhaps he became a terrorist or even a US Presidential candidate??)
Sorry I get so confused !!
