There was a nasty socialist style building sitting on this spot for decades. Thankfully, it was torn down and after much wait, the scaffolding disappeared and this is what graces the spot. Not exactly classical architecture, but it is shiny and new.
This is a side street next to it which leads to the Danube and the promenade. On the right are restaurants and casinos luring visitors to spend time and money.
Cheating just a bit here. As I've not been in the city much, I'm showing you door photos from Rome, Italy that I've taken in April. Equally beautiful - don't you agree?
In a separate area reserved for the folk art, there were small shops where artists demonstrated their craft and sold samples of their ware.
Rug weaving, candle making, pottery, textile coloring are just some of the items on display.
On our way to the wine tasting, we walked through a variety of cellars and small vacation homes. This one was particularly interesting with a display of old tools.
Nice and refreshing. We've found a sour cherry tree on our way and it was loaded down with ripe fruit. How refreshing.
The facade of this cellar has lovely decor of grapevine with clusters of grapes hanging down, but these are still very green and not edible.
