St. Stephen’s Basilica

#europetrip Exploring the grandeur of St. Stephen’s Basilica in Budapest was an awe-inspiring experience! From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the intricate neo-classical architecture and the stunning frescoes that adorn the walls. The highlight of my visit was climbing the 364 steps to the panoramic rooftop, where I was rewarded with breathtaking views of Budapest’s skyline, especially as the sun began to set. The basilica’s history is equally fascinating, with its construction spanning over 50 years and overcoming numerous challenges. Inside, I marveled at the mummified right hand of King St. Stephen, a revered relic. This visit was a perfect blend of history, art, and spirituality, making it a must-see for anyone visiting Budapest. Don’t miss the chance to experience this architectural masterpiece and its serene ambiance.
