Margaret Bridge at Dusk, Budapest, Hungary V1
The newly renovated bridge looks amazing! Margaret Bridge or Margit híd (sometimes Margit Bridge) is a three-way bridge in Budapest, Hungary, connecting Buda and Pest across the Danube and linking Margaret Island to the banks. It is the second-northernmost and second-oldest public bridge in Budapest. It was designed by French engineer Ernest Goüin and built by the construction company Maison Ernest Goüin et Cie. between 1872 and 1876, the engineer in charge being Émile Nouguier. Margaret Bridge was the second permanent bridge in Budapest after Széchenyi Chain Bridge. This bridge leads up to Margaret Island, its two parts enclosing 165 degrees with each other at the embranchment towards the island. The reason for this unusual geometry is that the small extension to connect to Margaret Island was hastily inserted into the original design but not built until two decades later due to lack of funds. The bridge's two ends are
Jászai Mari tér (northern end of Grand Boulevard) where I used to play on the play ground and roll down on the grass :)). the other Germanus Gyula park stop of Szentendre HÉV; the Lukács (on my last visit I had spa treatment here) and Király Baths are nearby. It is 607.5 metres (1,993 ft) in length and 25 metres (82 ft) in width.
Thank you all for the visit, kind remarks and invites, they are very much appreciated! 💝 I may reply to only a few comments due to my restricted time spent at the computer.
