Travels In Hungary

One of the central hubs for communication around town in Budapest is the Moszkva Tér (or Moscow Square) where people gather each day to transfer from buses, to trams, to trains, to the underground and to trolley buses. On the northern bank of the Danube it is currently a friendly place to visit. In former years, it also used to be patrolled by the Soviet military as it was a central hub for their soldiers. In addition there used to be a bakery (which is just out of shot) that used to make some of the finest bread in Budapest. In the 1970's and 1980's it usually had a queue out of its front door that was at least 50 yards long.
