Hungary located in Central Europe came to organized power during the 9th century. A country famous for paprika, Dobos Hungarian sponge cake, music, folk dances, spas etc. First time I visited Hungary in 2003 and later in 2014. Budapest changed from a cultural city to a high tech city in 2014. The Lion's Bridge, the palace and the museums remain the same. It was poignant to see the Shoes on the Danube Bank in memory of the Jews killed in the holocaust. In 2003, there were only few Indian restaurants. Now, Budapest has all types of cuisine served by the Restaurants. The best ones are the cafes and eateries along the banks of the Danube River. The best paprika krumpli can be found here. I ordered the vegetarian version with potatos. The liberty square and the monuments remind the struggles of Hungary during the World War II and the Hungarian revolution in 1956.
