The Széchenyi Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. Designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark, it was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Hungary, and was opened in 1849.

 

It is anchored on the Pest side of the river to Széchenyi (formerly Roosevelt) Square, adjacent to the Gresham Palace and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and on the Buda side to Adam Clark Square, near the Zero Kilometre Stone and the lower end of the Castle Hill Funicular, leading to Buda Castle.

 

The bridge has the name of István Széchenyi, a major supporter of its construction, attached to it, but is most commonly known as the Chain Bridge. At the time of its construction, it was regarded as one of the modern world's engineering wonders.[citation needed] It has asserted an enormous significance in the country's economic, social and cultural life, much as the Brooklyn Bridge has in New York and United States of America.

By artist, Charles Gaines. Per the description the box is like the hull of a ship. It’s 110 feet long with nine moving chains inside, (although at the moment the chains are not moving) the center chain moves in one direction while the other eight chains move in opposite directions, mimicking the currents in the harbor against the speed of the ship.

Crazy Tuesday: Chain(s)

My tenth build for the chain challenge between myself and Joeseidon.

This was in the Winter of 2018 and was a great trip to Budapest. I can stil remember this outing at night because it was cold and I was walking for hours taking pictures and I had my tripod on me and it was just so quiet in the city. I was staying in a beautiful hotel in a very old building right next to the Liberty Bridge. I see it still exists, it's called The Butterfly Home. Friendly people, beautiful city... great city trip.

 

European city trips in winter are nice. Less crowds, lower prices and I don't mind the cold. I'm thinking about going the Bucharest this winter.

A chain is made of many pieces or at least two pieces.

This handsome, powerful dog has an owner and looked healthy, we are working hard to try to convince owners not to chain their dogs.
