My Mom who was born and raised in Budapest found your video and we really enjoyed watching it! She immigrated here in 1973. We went there about 25 yrs ago. Hope to go back again in the future!

26:20 The first line is the first underground in Europe. London 1863 and in Europe Budapest 1896. Also the first electric subway

Hi ! I'm glad you liked it here. A couple of additions There is a so-called first door system, especially at night and on flights with little traffic. It means that you get on the bus at the first door and the driver will check your ticket. Only landing is permitted at the other doors. Homeless people avoid the underground's and subways. Their presence is a constant source of conflict. They are not well-groomed, dirty, drunk, teasing. Therefore, they are distracted from the vehicles. Pörc@prézli (cca pearts@ prezli) pörc fried pork skin is "prezli fried breadcrumbs.This was the coating on the cottage cheese dumplings. Gulyás ( goulash) : You thought right. So much more about it that it has many variations, but the base is always spicy beef soup with vegetables. The name of the food is also the name of an occupation. Gulyás is a shepherd who raises cattle. Like a cowboy. The one who took it to the market was the hajdú, the one who slaughtered it was the mészáros ( butcher ), and the processed it it was the hentes. If the last two expressions are said about a person, it is not exactly a compliment. But I can't believe that you haven't tried fruit soup, for example. The name is a bit shocking, but it is a spectacular dessert. There are several versions, for example with one type of fruit (sour cherry, raspberry). But it can also contain several types of fruit. 13:38 Sechenyi was not so bad. Considering the complexity of the name in Hungarian. But the names of the old noble families were so complicated. Ny corresponds roughly to Spanish ñ. The pronunciation of i is about the same as in indigo. 15:07 this green is quite friendly. But it's definitely better than, for example, gray. There are kings in the row of columns in the Heroes Square. This is a higher category than the general. In the Middle Ages, the king was also the supreme leader of the army. It is not by chance that the Middle Ages predominate. This was the heyday of the country. 22:29 This Spanish CAF is the youngest vehicle in the tram fleet. I note that earlier (1995) it also delivered railway cars to MÁV (Hungarian State Railways), which is currently the backbone of the international fleet. 22:47 CKD Tatra tram. This is a middle aged vehicle. 23:04 Ganz ICS tram (ICS= iprai csuklós= industrial articulated) This is already considered old. This means that only the UV type tram produced by Ganz is older, but it only operates as a nostalgia tram. The Market Hall has three floors. The pickled vegetables are in the cellar. Definitely a tourist trap. There are 7 categories of ground paprika from very sweet to very hot. You can also buy extra chili sauces from small producers. The classic of these is Erős Pista (Strong Stevie). This is ground raw hot pepper mixed with salt. You can buy it in any grocery store. Look for it under the food seasonings. It tastes more salty to me, but it might not be the same for others. If you need something spicier, check out the small manufacturers. The names Kegyes Halál, Attila Isten ostora (Merciful Death, Attila's Whip of God) are revealing... The large yellowish-white paprika berry seen in the markets is known in England as Hungarian wax. Not spicy type. There are at least 25 varieties in the group...Generally used as a adding in sandwiches and salads, it is the main ingredient of the dish called stuffed peppers. There is a version filled with spicy meat mixed with rice, and a pickled version filled with cabbage. On the other hand, dark green is more of a long variety, which is spicy. This is sold under the name of Hegyes erős (sharp strong) . There are several varieties of this too.. If you don't like the spicy taste, take this word "erős" seriously. It is eaten as a supplement, e.g. in sandwiches, but it is also added to food if you want a spicy taste. Other popular varieties are apple and cherry-shaped peppers in several sizes. They are rather pickled. They are also filled with sauerkraut. The apple shape can be non-spicy, the other only spicy. Vak varjú( Vak varyu) = Blind crow. One of the characters in a nursery rhyme. 26:23 The M1 line was the second such facility in the world. This is a sight to behold, although the original vehicles had to be replaced in 1974. At that time, the line was extended and the traffic schedule was also changed. One of the original vehicles can be seen in the Underground Railway Museum at the Deák tér stop. The line is part of the World Heritage. M2 line and M4 line work with the latest Alstom vehicles . The M3 line is operated by renovated Ev-3 vehicles of Russian origin. Eger. The place is significant because, after the disastrous Battle of Mohács in 1526, a clear winh was achieved here against the superpower of the time. The attacker was an army that already occupied two castles, which were stronger than the Eger castle. This also refers to the area protected by the castle. In this case, it is the area between the Danube and Tisza rivers. A novel was born about the event called Egri csillagok ( The Stars of Eger ). The author's grave is on one of the bastions of the Eger Castle. The novel was made into a film. The distillery is located in Pilisborojenő, close to Budapest, and is free to visit.The place name is Egri vár. Special congratulations for the trip to Eger. Tourists rarely dare to leave Budapest. But if it's a hidden place. Gyermekvasút , Libegő, Memento park . These are not in the tourist center. Best.

13:15 In Hungary, goulash soup is a lunch in itself and after that they only eat scones. Hungarians eat bread with goulash soup, and that's it. It's a decent meal.

@@MattAntar We have a more hearty soup than goulash soup, bean goulash. It is so hearty that it is often given even in the military.

I also enjoyed it as a Hungarian. The Széchenyi Bath is much cheaper for Hungarians, because doctors prescribe it on prescription if you ask for it. This is a pass, so it is good for several occasions. We don't eat goulash soup as often as you do, and mom or wife does it best.

11:17 Unfortunately, the House of Terror Museum is more of a propaganda piece than an actual museum. It's the brainchild of the current right-wing regime, and aimed at downplaying the sins of the Nazi period and overstating the effects of Socialism (they call it Communism which is never was). You yourself speak as if Nazism had been brought onto Hungary by the Germans. Which it wasn't. Just a single fact, Hungary introduced the numerus clausus years before Germany. Also, they instilled in you that Socialism (they refer to it Communism to sex it up) started in 1945, right at the end of the second world war. No, It didn't. There was a three-year period during which a truly democratic system was put in place. Soviet-style Socialism started with the rigging of the 1948 elections. Hungary is no longer a free or democratic country. You should always doble check your sources unfortunately.

Man probably you aimed only Americans and therefore this extreme hype with extreme excitement which is too much. I know that for Americans everything is very best in their all life - I mean they say it every day at least twice - So there is no serious component to it at all. OK we get use to it somehow , even we do not understand this approach in Europe. But if you have aimed not only American viewer base, then calm down a bit . Otherwise at least from Europe nobody will subscribe to this fakeness.
