Gellért hill is one of the most characteristic sights of Budapest, to say nothing of the fact that one of the most beautiful views over the capital opens from here. The 235-metre-high hill which is situated in the 11th district of the city, is a popular beauty spot, which is abound in both historical and natural values.
The Citadel, one of the most famous historical monuments found on Gellért hill, can be connected to the Hungarian Revolution of 1848-49. The fortress was built after the revolution was put down, between 1850-54 by order of Julius Haynau, with the purpose of keeping an eye on the city and the rebelling Hungarians. The fortress character of the 220 m long, 12-16 m high Citadel ended by 1897, a part of its wall was symbolically demolished, too. 


The Megyeri Bridge, previously known as the Northern M0 Danube bridge, is a cable-stayed bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, respectively the west and east sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It is a very important section of the M0 ringroad around Budapest.
It was officially opened on September 30, 2008, however, the National Transport Authority of Hungary has only issued a temporary permission because of the disagreement of the suburban cities surrounding the bridge. It has received much media attention due to the naming poll started to name the bridge.

It is the northernmost public bridge of the capital and the longest bridge in Hungary, spanning about 2 km (1.24 mi) with the sections leading up to the bridge, and 928 m (0.58 mi) without them. It is 35.3 m (116 ft) wide with pedestrian and bicycle paths.
Construction began in 1939 by the plans of János Kossalka. It was planned to be named "Árpád Bridge" after Grand Prince Árpád, the second Grand Prince of the Magyars.
Due to World War II, the bridge was finished only after the war in 1950. Because of the communist regime then ruling Hungary, the bridge was opened as Stalin Bridge (Hungarian: Sztálin híd). The final construction works were directed by Károly Széchy and Pál Sávoly.
The name was changed back to Árpád Bridge in 1958.

Petőfi híd or Petőfi Bridge (named after Sándor Petőfi, old name is Horthy Miklós Bridge, named after governor Horthy Miklós) is a bridge in Budapest, connecting Pest and Buda across the Danube. It is the second southernmost public bridge in Budapest.
Előtte a folyam, az új híd,
Még rajta zászlók lengenek:
Ma szentelé fel a komoly hit
S vidám zenével körmenet
Nyeré "Szűz-Szent-Margit" nevet.
(Arany János: Híd-avatás 1877)
Érdekesség, ha megfigyeljük a hídközepet és a Margit-szigetet összekötő szakaszt és képzeletben az útpályát tartó szerkezetet tükrözzük az útpálya felé, akkor kirajzolódik előttünk az elfektetett Eiffel-torony képe.
It was planned by the French engineer Ernest Goüin and built by his construction company, Maison Èmile Gouin (at present ‘’Société de constructions de Batignolles’’) between 1872-1876, the engineer in charge being Èmile Nouguier. Margaret Bridge is the second permanent bridge in Budapest after the Széchenyi Chain Bridge. This bridge leads up to Margaret Island, its two parts enclosing 165 degrees with each other at the embranchment towards the island. The reason for this unusual geometry lies in the fact the small extension to connect the Margaret Island was hastily inserted into the original design, but not built until two decades later due to lack of funds.

It is situated at the narrowest part of the Danube, the bridge spanning only 290 m. It is named after Queen Elisabeth, a popular queen and empress of Austria-Hungary, who was assassinated in 1898. The original permanent crossing, a decorative suspension bridge, was built between 1897 and 1903, amid a corruption scandal.. The original Erzsébet Bridge, along with many other bridges all over the country, was blown up at the end of World War II by retreating Wehrmacht sappers. This is the only bridge in Budapest which could not be rebuilt in its original form. The currently standing slender white cable bridge was built on the very same location between 1961–1964, because the government could not afford to construct entirely new foundations for the bridge. The main spar cables of the bridge are hexagonal in cross section, composed of thousands of elementary steel wires of seven different diametres, partly because early computers were unable to provide solution for a circular cross section main cable batch. The novel design, planned by Pál Sávoly, was a first in Central Europe and not without weaknesses. Tram traffic and its heavy tracks had to be removed from the bridge in 1973 after signs of cracks appeared in the structure.

Napjainkban
Az ő kezdeményezésére indult el a híd építése 1839-ben. Tervezője az angol Tierney W. Clark, míg kivitelezésének irányítója a skót Adam Clark volt, aki 1849-ben, az építkezés befejezése után Magyarországon telepedett le. Az ő nevét viseli a tér az Alagút és a Lánchíd között.
Két, klasszicista stílusban megépített mederpillér tartja a vasláncokat, amelyeken a híd pályateste függeszkedik. Innen a „lánchíd” elnevezés
Széchenyi lánchíd or Széchenyi Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Budapest, and was opened in 1849.
