    Hiking

    The Chain Bridge (Széchenyi lánchíd) is one of Budapest's most famous landmarks and the oldest permanent bridge across the Danube in the Hungarian capital. It connects the Buda and Pest districts and symbolically represents the unification of the two halves of the city into Budapest in 1873.
    The bridge was designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark and built under the direction of the Scottish engineer Adam Clark. The grand opening took place in 1849. The initiator of the project was the Hungarian reform politician István Széchenyi, after whom the bridge is also named.
