Acquincum Ruins
Before there was Budapest, there was Buda and Pest. And way before that was the Roman town of Acquincum. I have never been one to be too interested in Roman ruins, so considering the temperature was hovering around 95 degrees with full sun above, it’s amazing I was able to take any pictures at all. Fortunately there was an air-conditioned museum inside, where of course we weren’t allowed to take pictures. Still, here is one factual thing for those interested: some of the ruins have been built up a bit to give visitors a better sense of what it looked like. There’s a red brick line to show the border of what’s original and what’s been added on.
