The Chain Bridge was built by István Széchenyi from 1839 to 1849. It is 375 meters long and 12.5 meters wide. It connects Széchenyi István Square with Clark Ádám Square.

It is especially magical at night when it is illuminated with colorful lights - on holidays it sometimes even glows in the colors of the Hungarian flag.
