<br />
Budapest is the capital and most populous city of Hungary. It is the tenth-largest city in the European Union by population within city limits and the second-largest city on the river Danube. The estimated population of the city in 2025 is 1,782,240. This includes the city's population and surrounding suburban areas, over a land area of about 525 square kilometres (203 square miles). Budapest, which is both a city and municipality, forms the centre of the Budapest metropolitan area, which has an area of 7,626 square kilometres (2,944 square miles) and a population of 3,019,479. It is a primate city, constituting 33% of the population of Hungary.<br />
<br />
The history of Budapest began when an early Celtic settlement transformed into the Roman town of Aquincum, the capital of Lower Pannonia. The Hungarians arrived in the territory in the late 9th century, but the area was pillaged by the Mongols in 1241–42. Re-established Buda became one of the centres of Renaissance humanist culture by the 15th century. The Battle of Mohács, in 1526, was followed by nearly 150 years of Ottoman rule. After the reconquest of Buda in 1686, the region entered a new age of prosperity, with Pest-Buda becoming a global city after the unification of Buda, Óbuda and Pest on 17 November 1873, with the name 'Budapest' given to the new capital. Budapest also became the co-capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a great power that dissolved in 1918, following World War I. The city was the focal point of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and the Battle of Budapest in 1945, as well as the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.<br />
<br />
Budapest is a global city with strengths in commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. Budapest is Hungary's financial centre. Budapest hosts the headquarters of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology, the European Police College and the first foreign office of the China Investment Promotion Agency. Over 40 colleges and universities are located in Budapest, including Eötvös Loránd University, Corvinus University, Semmelweis University, University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. Opened in 1896, the city's subway system, the Budapest Metro, serves 1.27 million, while the Budapest Tram Network serves 1.08 million passengers daily.<br />
<br />
The central area of Budapest along the Danube is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has several notable monuments of classical architecture, including the Hungarian Parliament and the Buda Castle. The city also has around 80 geothermal springs, the largest thermal water cave system, second largest synagogue, and third largest Parliament building in the world. Budapest attracts around 12 million international tourists per year, making it a highly popular destination in Europe.<br />

<br />
Dopo la mattinata trascorsa a Prgomet sono ormai le 10, orario in cui solitamente smetto di scattare foto durante il periodo estivo, fino circa alle 16, per avere una luce più favorevole che illumini anche i carrelli. In questo caso, però, avevo pianificato un paio di punti tra le 14 e le 15: il primo tra gli slalom nella roccia nella zona di Labin, il secondo nel parco dei pini poco dopo Sadine. A entrambi ho dovuto rinunciare per la grande quantità di serpenti incontrati sia in mattinata che in generale durante la mia permanenza in Croazia. Considerando che mi muovevo in costume per il caldo torrido e che avrei dovuto attraversare zone con erba alta e visibilità nulla, o nel caso di Sadine passare su numerose rocce piene di insenature habitat perfetto per i serpenti ho preferito non rischiare ulteriormente, anche se so bene che di norma si tengono alla larga dall’uomo.<br />
<br />
Salto direttamente alla sera, nel punto che più aspettavo: la vista da Sadine su tutta Spalato, le cittadine circostanti, le montagne che abbracciano la costa e il mare punteggiato da qualche isola qua e là. Qui avrei atteso l’unico Intercity della serata, l’Adria già fotografato al mattino. Alla fine passa abbastanza in orario, sotto un’ottima luce serale. Subito dopo mi sposto in un punto poco distante, dove attendo per circa due ore nella speranza che qualcosa sarebbe transitato, e invece...<br />
<br />

<br />
Nach einem Vormittag in Prgomet ist es nun 10 Uhr, die Zeit, zu der ich im Sommer normalerweise bis etwa 16 Uhr keine Fotos mehr mache, um ein günstigeres Licht zu haben, das auch die Wagen beleuchtet. In diesem Fall hatte ich jedoch zwischen 14 und 15 Uhr zwei Punkte geplant: den ersten zwischen den Slaloms in den Felsen in der Gegend von Labin, den zweiten im Pinienpark kurz nach Sadine. Auf beide musste ich verzichten, da ich sowohl am Vormittag als auch während meines gesamten Aufenthalts in Kroatien auf eine große Anzahl von Schlangen gestoßen bin. Da ich wegen der sengenden Hitze nur in Badehose unterwegs war und Gebiete mit hohem Gras und null Sicht durchqueren musste oder im Fall von Sadine über zahlreiche Felsen voller Buchten klettern musste ein perfekter Lebensraum für Schlangen, zog ich es vor, kein weiteres Risiko einzugehen, auch wenn ich weiß, dass sie sich normalerweise von Menschen fernhalten.<br />
<br />
Ich springe direkt zum Abend, zu dem Punkt, auf den ich mich am meisten gefreut habe: der Blick von Sadine auf ganz Split, die umliegenden Städte, die Berge, die die Küste umgeben, und das Meer, das hier und da von einigen Inseln gesprenkelt ist. Hier würde ich auf den einzigen Intercity des Abend warten, den Adria, den ich bereits am Morgen fotografiert hatte. Schließlich kommt er ziemlich pünktlich, bei ausgezeichnetem Abendlicht. Gleich danach begebe ich mich an einen nicht weit entfernten Ort, wo ich etwa zwei Stunden lang warte, in der Hoffnung, dass etwas vorbeikommt, aber stattdessen...</p>

Budapest is the capital and most populous city of Hungary. It is the tenth-largest city in the European Union by population within city limits and the second-largest city on the river Danube. The estimated population of the city in 2025 is 1,782,240. This includes the city's population and surrounding suburban areas, over a land area of about 525 square kilometres (203 square miles). Budapest, which is both a city and municipality, forms the centre of the Budapest metropolitan area, which has an area of 7,626 square kilometres (2,944 square miles) and a population of 3,019,479. It is a primate city, constituting 33% of the population of Hungary.<br />
<br />
The history of Budapest began when an early Celtic settlement transformed into the Roman town of Aquincum, the capital of Lower Pannonia. The Hungarians arrived in the territory in the late 9th century, but the area was pillaged by the Mongols in 1241–42. Re-established Buda became one of the centres of Renaissance humanist culture by the 15th century. The Battle of Mohács, in 1526, was followed by nearly 150 years of Ottoman rule. After the reconquest of Buda in 1686, the region entered a new age of prosperity, with Pest-Buda becoming a global city after the unification of Buda, Óbuda and Pest on 17 November 1873, with the name 'Budapest' given to the new capital. Budapest also became the co-capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a great power that dissolved in 1918, following World War I. The city was the focal point of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and the Battle of Budapest in 1945, as well as the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.<br />
<br />
Budapest is a global city with strengths in commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. Budapest is Hungary's financial centre. Budapest hosts the headquarters of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology, the European Police College and the first foreign office of the China Investment Promotion Agency. Over 40 colleges and universities are located in Budapest, including Eötvös Loránd University, Corvinus University, Semmelweis University, University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest and the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. Opened in 1896, the city's subway system, the Budapest Metro, serves 1.27 million, while the Budapest Tram Network serves 1.08 million passengers daily.<br />
<br />
The central area of Budapest along the Danube is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has several notable monuments of classical architecture, including the Hungarian Parliament and the Buda Castle. The city also has around 80 geothermal springs, the largest thermal water cave system, second largest synagogue, and third largest Parliament building in the world. Budapest attracts around 12 million international tourists per year, making it a highly popular destination in Europe.<br />

Dopo essermi abbronzato per un paio d’ore e aver perso l’ultimo regionale della mattina per Split (che ovviamente ho fotografato mentre attendevo), il prossimo treno utile è a oltre otto ore e mezza di distanza. La mia scommessa nel confidare che un tassista di Uber si spingesse fino a lì ha funzionato solo dopo mezz’ora di tentativi, poco prima di passare al piano non sicuro di riserva: il pitstop. A parte questo dettaglio, sicuramente secondario rispetto all’obiettivo fotografico della giornata, ecco che finalmente arriva l’Intercity “Adria”, fotogenico come sempre, con “solo” 25 minuti di ritardo e ancora sotto un sole decente.<br />

Nachdem ich mich ein paar Stunden lang gebräunt und den letzten Regionalzug am Morgen nach Split verpasst habe (den ich natürlich fotografiert habe, während ich gewartet habe), ist der nächste Zug erst in über achteinhalb Stunden. Meine Wette, dass ein Uber-Taxifahrer bis dorthin fahren würde, hat erst nach einer halben Stunde Versuchen funktioniert, kurz bevor ich zu meinem unsicheren Plan B übergegangen wäre: dem Boxenstopp. Abgesehen von diesem Detail, das im Vergleich zum fotografischen Ziel des Tages sicherlich zweitrangig ist, kommt endlich der Intercity „Adria“, fotogen wie immer, mit „nur“ 25 Minuten Verspätung und noch bei recht gutem Sonnenlicht.</p>
