2011 Winter Trip - Part 2

Salam.

Now let's sambung with the next place.

STOP 2: BUDAPEST, HUNGARY

( 8-10 January 2011 )

Brief notes:

- We arrived there at night and Subhanallah! Budapest is soooo beautiful. We're so amazed masa mula-mula sampai. Memang penuh cahaya lampu je at night. Malam tu, tanpa mengira penat lelah..(ecehhh) kami pun mula jalan2 and took pictures. Oh yeah, Budapest lagi sejukkk laa...

- Lupa, when we arrived, we took a train to the hostel. Noe what? Kami terkejut bila sampai hostel coz it looks like a haunted house kat luar. Masa masuk the first door lagi gerun tengok tempat tu dgn buruknya..terkopak sana sini. But when we enter the next door, phewww..lawa jugak rupanya and selesalah hostel tu dgn bilik yg sgt luasnya..ehehe. Nasib baik ~

This tyme, we divided into 2 groups. Some naik tour bus and some amik walking tour. Of course I would awal2 choose the tour bus sbb malas n tak larat nak jalan. Unfortunately, that day foggy teramat. So we can't really see much things and tak dpt nak amik gambar sgt especially kat kwsn atas bukit. We can only nampak white je..
- But hati sedikit terubat sbb malam tu kami dapat naik boat tour. First time okeh..tour pakai boat. Quite menarik except for kesejukan melampau & tingkap plastik yg buatkan aku takleh amik gambar.

- Oh ya, FYI, Budapest is pronounced as BudaPesh. Ia terbahagi kepada 3 bahagian utama iaitu Buda, Pest and Old Buda. We only cover Buda and Pest part. Buda n Pest dipisahkan oleh sebatang sungai yang mengalir ke 8 buah negara. Ada 3 buah jambatan utama iaitu Chain Bridge, Freedom Bridge dan Elizabeth bridge yg menghubungkan Buda and Pest. Buda merupakan kwsn yg agak berbukit manakala Pest agak landai dan pernah dimusnahkan oleh banjir besar satu masa dulu.

- Budapest kalau nak diikutkan, takdelah bersejarah sangat macam Berlin but pernah terlibat dgn World war 2 kalau tak silap. And I just knew that Turki pernah menakluk kwsn ni and there's even a mosque yg dah ditukar kpd church kat sini.

- Makanan halal agak senang dgn adanya restoran-restoran Turki. We eat a lot masa kat Budapest. Dah la portion agak besar, murah pulak tu..ape lagi, bedal la! :P

- Jadi org kaya jap sbb tukar 50 euros n dapat about 13000 matawang kat sana yg dipanggil Forint. Actually takdelah kaya pun, cuma nilai2 duit yg besar buat aku berangan kejap..hehe.

- Bandar yg agak besar dengan bangunan2 yg pelbagai reka bentuknya dan tinggi2 belaka. Agak pesat membangun jugaklah..Public transport pun pelbagai jugak and agak cekap. They hv tram, tren, bus, and even trolley bus!
- Second time sambut Birthday time travel. Kalau last time kat Valencia, this time kat Budapest pulak..Thanks to all for the wishes and dua. Thanks jugak banyak2 to ahli rombongan yg wish me berkali-kali and even bought me brownies masa transit kejap kat Berlin hari tu. May Allah bless all of you :)

First day arrived in Budapest. Jalan2 melihat pemandangan Budapest di waktu malam.

They even hv a small traffic lights for bicycle..hehe

Kurtoskalacs: A Hungarian speciality. Nasib baik the walking tour gang beli roti ni..dapatlah kami merasa makanan Hungary..heh. Sedap roti ni..bentuknya berpintal-pintal dengan ruang kosong kat tengah.

Ade tragedi masa nak amik gambar ni. Tibe2 ade dua tiga ekor anjing datang masuk skali masa kami tgh nak bergambar. Mmg cuak abes dah tyme ni, nak nanges pon ade. Dorg kata anjing tu mmg parking baik punye dekat sgt ngan our legs. Aku tak berani pandang bwh langsung..huhu

Weeeeeee ~
