**December 17, 2024 Tuesday Budapest, Hungary
Made a visit to the famous riverside location of one of Hungary's oldest fresh food markets and stalls: Central Market Hall/Farmers Markets (Központi Vásárcsarnok). The 2nd floor features shops and handcrafts, coats/jackets, purses and leather work as well
as traditional clothes and woven garments. About a third are food stalls, a restaurant/beer garden and shops selling langos (see above).
Locals say langos are like a Hungarian pizza, a deep-fried Hungarian flatbread typically topped with garlic, sour cream and cheese...great with a local beer.
Jennifer and Chris enjoyed the complimentary city tour of famous sites including downtown and surrounding areas including Parliament building, Buda Castle, Fisherman's Bastion and other city sites including another Christmas market visits inn downtown where several other locations feature holiday markets.

Luckily, our UNIWORLD ship was docked across the street from the huge inside market building.
