First Bridge to Connect Buda and Pest
| Address: |

Clark Adam ter - Roosevelt ter Budapest, 1013 |
Description
This spectacular bridge has an equally spectacular history. It's a great place from which to take in a panorama of the city, which becomes even more impressive at night. This was the very first bridge to link the two cities of Buda and Pest. The project was started in 1839 by designer William Tierney Clark and engineer Adam Clark, and it was completed in 1849. The bridge celebrated its 150th birthday recently with a huge open-air festival.
