Budapest Buda Castle #20

布達皇宮Buda Castle：城堡坐落在小山崗之上，居高臨下，氣勢懾人。曾經輝煌的匈牙利國王居住地，在過去7個世紀中經銷歷了數度燒毀、被炸、重建，命運坎坷。

The Budapest Castle Hill Funicular is 143 years old today!

The Budapest Castle Hill Funicular or Budavári Sikló is a funicular railway in the city of Budapest, in Hungary. It links the Adam Clark Square and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge at river level to Buda Castle above.
The line was opened on March 2, 1870, and has been in municipal ownership since 1920. It was destroyed in the Second World War and reopened on June 4, 1986. A feature of the line are the two pedestrian foot bridges which cross above it. These were present when the line opened, were removed in 1900 when the castle's garden was extended, and rebuilt to the original design in 1983.
