St. Stephen's Basilica is one of Budapest's most beloved structures, named for the nation's first king. (It even houses the king's right hand - no joke.) Its impressive stature cannot be beat, as it looms over all other buildings (except the Parliament, its symbolic vertical equal) at 96 meters tall. Admire its facade, wander through the sanctuary, and don't forget to look up. Tip: Brave the 364 stairs for a 360 degree view of the grandiose city. #budapest #basilica #europe #centraleurope #viewpoint #free #gallery #statue #history
