I wonder how many people walk past completely unaware!<br /> <br /> <i>Mr. Bean's Teddy in Budapest is a small bronze statue created by artist Mihály Kolodko. It is located on the wall of the former British Embassy at Harmincad utca 6, in District V, near Elizabeth Square and the Kempinski Hotel. The, sculpture is part of a series of mini-guerrilla art pieces hidden throughout the city.</i> (From Google AI)</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/petrhorak/">Petr Horak</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/petrhorak/55131133999/" title="Budapest night"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55131133999_1489c0d97e_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Budapest night" /></a></p> <p>Sunday 07-Feb-2026, 17:17:22.<br /> <br /> Vár, Gimnázium utca, Buda, Víziváros, 1st district, Budapest, Central Hungary, 1015, Hungary, HUN, altitude 158.75 m.<br /> <br /> NIKON CORPORATION NIKON D780, serial number 6002739, VR 24-70mm f/2.8E, 62 mm, F/8, 1.6 s, ISO 100.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.deadmount.com" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.deadmount.com</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/kareszzz/">kareszzz</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/kareszzz/55131133504/" title="Take-off"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55131133504_1bce2155ed_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Take-off" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/131947100@N08/">kud4ipad</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/131947100@N08/55131056184/" title="Market"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55131056184_37ba8e0158_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Market" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/151719277@N08/">Cata Kellner</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/151719277@N08/55131035109/" title="Interior of Matthias Church &amp; Fisherman&#039;s Bastion View, Budapest"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55131035109_c606b60250_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Interior of Matthias Church &amp; Fisherman&#039;s Bastion View, Budapest" /></a></p> <p>ESPAÑOL<br /> Explorando la dualidad de Budapest a través de dos de sus joyas arquitectónicas más impresionantes. En este viaje, decidí simplificar mi equipo y centrarme en la narrativa visual que ofrecen dos focales muy distintas.<br /> <br /> La Mirada Exterior: Desde los icónicos arcos del Bastión de los Pescadores, utilicé el 50mm para crear un marco natural que resalta la majestuosidad del Parlamento. La compresión del lente ayuda a equilibrar la textura de la piedra caliza en primer plano con la arquitectura gótica del fondo.<br /> <br /> El Tesoro Interior: Al entrar en la Iglesia de San Matías, el gran angular de 10-20mm fue indispensable para capturar la magnitud de sus techos y la riqueza de sus patrones dorados. Esta perspectiva picada permite apreciar la armonía entre las columnas policromadas y la geometría del suelo.<br /> <br /> ENGLISH<br /> Exploring the duality of Budapest through two of its most breathtaking architectural gems. For this trip, I decided to simplify my gear and focus on the visual narrative offered by two very different focal lengths.<br /> <br /> The Exterior Gaze: From the iconic arches of the Fisherman's Bastion, I used the 50mm to create a natural frame that highlights the majesty of the Parliament building. The lens compression helps balance the texture of the limestone in the foreground with the Gothic architecture in the background.<br /> <br /> The Interior Treasure: Upon entering Matthias Church, the 10-20mm wide-angle lens was essential to capture the magnitude of its ceilings and the richness of its golden patterns. This high-angle perspective allows for an appreciation of the harmony between the polychrome columns and the geometry of the floor.<br /> <br /> Equipo: &gt; - Cuerpo: [Canon RP]<br /> <br /> Lentes: 50mm Macro / 10-20mm Gran Angular.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/60663952@N02/">Davee91</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/60663952@N02/55130779386/" title="2026.02.28 | 182 569-4 | Tatabánya"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55130779386_bc6c112c6d_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="2026.02.28 | 182 569-4 | Tatabánya" /></a></p> <p>EC 145 &quot;Liszt Ferenc&quot; (Wien Westbahnhof-Budapest-Keleti pu.)

In divisive times, it may help bring a little comfort to a fractured union.</i> (From budapestflow.com)<br /> <br /> It may be controversial but I want my European friends to know, we didn't want Brexit to happen.

While once used for transporting goods across the Austro-Hungarian Empire and later the Eastern Bloc, this particular model is often associated with a darker chapter of history; similar wagons were notoriously used for the mass deportation of Hungarian Jews to Auschwitz during WWII.<br /> <br /> Today, the Istvántelek yard serves as a &quot;rusting museum&quot; where nature slowly reclaims some of Hungary's most legendary locomotives and rolling stock.<br /> <br /> History &amp; Context<br /> The Site: The Istvántelek Main Workshop was established between 1901 and 1905 as a premier repair hub for locomotives and carriages in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.<br /> <br /> The Wagon: This is a covered goods wagon featuring a wooden body on a steel chassis. These were versatile &quot;G-type&quot; wagons used for everything from grain to livestock.<br /> <br /> Wartime Significance: Historical researchers note that the 10-meter long wooden wagons seen at Istvántelek are the same models used by the Nazi SS and MÁV to transport over 400,000 Hungarian Jews in 1944. The presence of barbed wire or narrow, high-placed vents (as seen in the image) is a characteristic of these transport conversions.<br /> <br /> Current State: Most of the rolling stock at Istvántelek is technically owned by the Hungarian Railway Museum, but due to lack of funding, they remain in a state of &quot;stabilized decay&quot; within the partially active industrial site.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/i_csuhai/">Istvan</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/i_csuhai/55129009132/" title="Hegedű utca"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55129009132_1a8aea8e97_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Hegedű utca" /></a></p> <p>A relatively small street in the downtown of Budapest.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/201306958@N06/">jcsmith30</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/201306958@N06/55130258120/" title="View"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55130258120_5090151dd4_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="View" /></a></p> <p>Badapest</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/europapont/">Európa Pont</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/europapont/55129576835/" title="2026.03.04.
