"My name is Csaba Tamas. I'm a travel guide, and I work for Yellow Zebra, and on behalf of Expert Village, we're having this tour around the city of Budapest today in Hungary. First site of Budapest we're going to talk about is the Hero Square, which is on the west side. You can get there really fast from the Dag Square, where all the three metro lines are meeting, and you can take the yellow underground until the Hero Square, which is in Hungarian Hosok tere. And that is an area where you find eclectic architectural style, and that area is also part of the City Park, which has more museums and more sites to look around. That is the embassy of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, which we been part of it for so many decades, from 1867 until the first World War, so we have a lot of architecture, a lot of things built, from that time. That is what you can see on the Hero Square, and in the City Park."
