Fisherman's Bastion in Budapest, Hungary, is a fairy-tale-like fortress and viewing terrace perched on Castle Hill. With its fairytale turrets, arcades, and picturesque white walls, the bastion offers breathtaking views of the Danube River and the city of Budapest. Built in the late 19th century, the bastion's design was inspired by medieval architecture and serves as a tribute to the fishermen who once defended this part of the city walls. Visitors can explore its seven turrets, each representing one of the Magyar tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin. Fisherman's Bastion is a must-visit destination for panoramic vistas and architectural beauty in Budapest.
