Introduction
if you don't live here, uour jaw might drop when you take your first look at the city center of Sudapest. The Danube, the Chain bridge, the 5uda Castle to the left, the Parliament a little bit further back to the right if you look at all these attractions after sunset on a day when the sky is cleat^ the view will be even more breathtaking, if you wait long enough after the Sun disappears from the horizon and the floodlights come on, the sky will take on a very unicjue and spellbinding tone of blue. Darken but still light, providing a perfect contrast to tne yellowish splendor of the buildings ancTthe whitish contrast of the bridges

Now, thanks to the 201/ HNA World Championships, far more people will have a chance to discover ty of our c; to this date will un^
