Work and Leisure Trip

in Wednesday Walk2 years ago

When you are lazy like me and it's the middle of summer, your last wish is to go outside, drive a car, or have a walk in the middle of a foreign town, almost at noon... When the sun has no mercy on anyone... :) On the other side, at these times, I try to do my daily walks or early in the morning, or late in the evening...

As I'm currently in the Eastern Europe, and not on the seaside, mornings and nights are much colder than in Spain... As a matter of fact, another day I had an idea to wear a jersey in the morning as it was chilly... But, as soon as the sun comes out, it becomes hot...

IMG_20220719_094231.jpg

But, this day was different... I didn't go for my early walk, but instead, we (wife, son, and me) went for a short trip to Hungary... As I probably wouldn't do it without the reason, I had to go as we had to do some paperwork for my son... The idea was to go early and avoid daytime heat and we left our home around 7 AM, but...

The idea was good, but the realization was bad... :) I think that you know what happened when we arrived at the government office, as bureaucracy is the same all around the world... We had to wait almost 2 hours for our turn... We split and my son and I went to the town center for a short walk...

The town where we were is named Baja... It's situated on the river Danube and it's famous for its fish stew like many other towns in that region, including my hometown... In general, that part of Hungary isn't "representative" as it was most of the time a "poorer" part of the "Empire", but still, the town has its charm as you can see from the photos...

As every other town, it has its church and in this case, you can see two different churches... One is located at the beginning of the main street (Franciscan Friary), and the other one is visible at the bottom... If I paid more attention, maybe I could catch both in the same photo, but it would be hard to achieve from the "pedestrian view"...

IMG_20220719_092436.jpg

This photo is taken from the beginning of the street and knowing that the end is where you can spot the church, you get the point that it's not a long main street... :) Close to the church, there is a tourist train that can drive you around the town and show all the beauties with comments from the "engine driver"... :)

Parallel streets are wider as the majority of the traffic goes through them... On the side of the busy street, I spotted a charming small park and you know that I like parks as I have already written about one a month ago...

The guy who gifted this park to the town got his own sculpture at the bottom among beautiful green grass and red flowers... As every park, it has a small part where the children's playground is situated that I have missed photographing... :)

On my way back to the car, I noticed two more sculptures of important people from the town and to the town... One was István Türr, a Hungarian soldier, canal architect, and engineer, that was known as a person who unified people in Hungary and later in his life was known as a big pacifist...

Another sculpture represents Gajdócsi István, who was a town representative and the regional parliament representative... He played a big role in the regional cultural and artistic life as he was strongly supporting it...

Eastern Europe is magical.
Budapest, Praag, Krakow among many awesome places and cultures within short distance. Pretty affordable too.
Have a great time.

!PIZZA

Pretty affordable too.

yes, it is! You get tons of Europe history for a cheap price! And nature around every city (or town) is magical!

!LUV

Boommm! When it comes to a trip to Hungary, their capital... Budapest... sounds like a fun place to be. Haha. From the first time I heard about the city, I always looked forward to an opportunity to walk around there and enjoy the breeze in the area. Hahah. But I'm stuck in Africa for now 😂.

I may well be the only one not making these interesting trips. All I can do is enjoy travel posts like yours and soak in all the narration.

Those pictures are all amazing. Hungary is indeed a neat place.

Thanks for your comment! I went to Budapest a few years ago, but this time, we have visited this small town instead... And we weren't disappointed!

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

Luckily, that day the heat wasn't as bad as today, and probably the next few days... When it's this hot, the best walks are in nature, near rivers, the sea, etc... :)

!LUV

That’s good
Yes in the hot days we are having heat I go out very early when it is cooler

Enjoy the cooler nights… it must be wonderful. It’s hot 🥵 in Spain.
Beautiful place you visited @ph1102 😎 so much to see.

!PIZZA

Eastern Europe is so cool. It's reminds me a bit of Denmark, the park is so refreshing !

!PIZZA

Interesting that it reminds you of Denmark... Hungary in general is a mix of many different cultures, but also, it had a lot of influence on others throughout history...

!PIZZA

That train is too cute.... And the place looks relaxing ,😊

It's a small town and it has some special charm, indeed! Worth visiting!

!PIZZA

Yes, I suppose bureaucracy is the same all around the world as you say! No escape from the waiting!

But you did well with your walk and you came up with some beautiful photos!

I love the greenery even amongst the buildings and the parks look beautiful!

Thank you for sharing your walk with us via your photos!
