This is one of the best known landmarks in Budapest.
The Heros’ square is one of the most visited sights of the Hungarian capital, it is situated at the end of the Andrássy Avenue, one of the most important streets of Budapest, a World Heritage site. The millenial monument was built in 1896 to commemorate the 1,000th anniversary of the arrival of Hungarians in the Carpathian Basin. The monument consists of two semi-circles on the top of which the symbols of War and Peace, Work and Wellfare, Knowledge and Glory can be seen.

Your face fits very well on this scenery. I have always thought it is typically Hungarian. When I look at this picture, in my mind I see Arpad and his horsemen, guided by the human-like goddess Susan.
