Conceived and constructed over 10 years starting in 1839, the Chain Bridge is one of Budapest's best loved points of interest. It was closed for widening in the mid 1910s, and then was destroyed by the Germans in 1945. Only the pillars remained after WWII. Rebuilt in its original image, slightly altered for modern traffic and technical reasons, the Chain Bridge is an image I'll hold dear after our beautiful visit this past fall.
This is beautiful! Can you walk on it or is it only for traffic?
