Budapest's first permanent bridge, this historic structure marked the first step towards the unification of Buda and Pest.
Budapest's first permanent bridge, the Lánchíd was built on the initiative of Count István Széchenyi. The work was directed by the Scottish engineer Adam Clark and lasted from 1842 to 1849. In the past, we used to cross over ice and floating bridges in the summer. The bridge marked a first step towards the unification of Buda and Pest, of which Széchenyi was a great supporter. Destroyed during the Second World War, it was rebuilt identically in 1949.

Bon, quand on se promène sur le pont, on remarque vite qu'une rénovation serait nécessaire, mais il en impose tout de même quand on sait qu'il a été un des ponts les plus modernes de son temps, réalisé par des ingénieurs anglais.
Des rives de Pest ou de Buda, des collines ou depuis la promenade Corso, on petu le photographier 100 fois. Et au milieu du pont, on a aussi une superbe vue sur le beau Danube bleu ( pour la photo prise, ce jour là, les reflets donnaient l'impression qu'il était bleu...) Magnifique!
