Tel-Abib was a place in Babylon and the original name means a place of ruins. The translation to Tel-Aviv means the opposite, a place that blossoms.

Unterwegs werden wir das künstlerische Herz der Stadt auf der Museumsinsel erkunden, die architektonische Schönheit der Straße Unter den Linden bewundern und in die Geschichten eintauchen, die Berlin zu der dynamischen Metropole geformt haben, die es heute ist. Wir beginnen heute auf der Paul-Löbe-Allee, die bequem am Bundestag-Metrohaltepunkt sowie an den Parkplätzen des Skulpturenpark-Gartens liegt. Okay, lassen Sie uns loslegen.

Здравствуйте и добро пожаловать на этот тур UCPlaces по Королеве Дуная! Вы прибыли в чарующий город Будапешт, где история и современность переплетаются вдоль живописных берегов легендарной реки. В ходе этой пешеходной экскурсии вы узнаете, почему Будапешт часто называют «Королевой Дуная». Город Будапешт разделён на две основные части: Буда и Пешт, которые разделяет река Дунай. Это разделение отражает исторические, географические и культурные различия между двумя частями, которые официально объединились в 1873 году. Пешт, где мы сейчас находимся, — это плоская часть города, ставшая его коммерческим и административным центром. Ранее это был отдельный город, и он славится своей яркой культурной и социальной жизнью. Пешт более плоский и плотно застроен, здесь расположено большинство коммерческих объектов и правительственных зданий. Западная сторона Дуная, Буда, отличается своими холмами и историческими достопримечательностями, такими как Будайская крепость. Исторически это был отдельный город, и он всегда считался более престижным и жилым районом. Буда известна своими холмами, зелёными зонами и жилыми районами. Мы исследуем эту часть города позже во время экскурсии. Меня зовут Дейв, и мне приятно показать вам этот потрясающий город в самом сердце Европы. Сегодня мы посетим исторически и культурно значимые достопримечательности, чтобы предоставить вам лучший опыт. От замков и соборов до термальных источников и городских легенд — всё это вы найдёте здесь. Мы начинаем наш тур в Варошлигете, также известном как Городской парк — крупнейшем общественном парке в Будапеште и одном из самых популярных мест отдыха в городе. Это отличное место для начала, так как здесь удобно расположены парковки, если вы приехали на машине, а также остановки общественного транспорта. Сегодняшняя экскурсия предполагает умеренную прогулку, поэтому надеюсь, что вы надели самые удобные обувь. Не волнуйтесь, мы сделаем остановки для освежения и покажем лучшие места, чтобы передохнуть и расслабиться. Следуйте по маршруту, и давайте начнём с нашей первой остановки на экскурсии.

Bonjour et bienvenue à cette visite UCPlaces de la Reine du Danube ! Vous êtes arrivé dans la ville enchanteresse de Budapest, où l'histoire et la modernité se mêlent le long des rives pittoresques du légendaire fleuve. En commençant cette visite à pied, vous découvrirez pourquoi Budapest est souvent appelée la « Reine du Danube ». La ville de Budapest est divisée en deux parties principales : Buda et Pest, séparées par le fleuve Danube. Cette division reflète les différences historiques, géographiques et culturelles entre ces deux zones, qui ont été officiellement réunies en 1873. Pest, où nous nous trouvons actuellement, est plate et s’est développée pour devenir le cœur commercial et administratif de Budapest. C'était aussi une ville séparée avant l’unification, et elle possède une scène culturelle et sociale vibrante. Pest est plus plate et plus densément construite, abritant la plupart des activités commerciales et des bâtiments gouvernementaux de la ville. Le côté ouest du fleuve Danube, Buda, est caractérisé par ses collines et ses monuments historiques, comme le Château de Buda. Historiquement, Buda était une ville distincte et a toujours été considérée comme la partie plus résidentielle et huppée de la ville. Buda est connue pour ses collines verdoyantes et ses quartiers plus résidentiels. Nous explorerons cette partie plus tard dans la visite. Je m’appelle Dave, et c’est un plaisir pour moi de vous faire découvrir cette magnifique ville au cœur de l’Europe. Aujourd'hui, nous visiterons des monuments historiques et culturels significatifs afin de vous offrir la meilleure expérience possible. Des châteaux et des cathédrales aux spas en plein air et aux légendes urbaines, vous trouverez tout cela ici. Nous commençons ici dans Városliget, également connu sous le nom de Parc de la Ville, le plus grand parc public de Budapest et l'un des lieux de loisirs les plus populaires de la ville. C’est un bon point de départ car nous sommes idéalement situés près des parkings, si vous êtes venu en voiture, ainsi que des arrêts de transports en commun. La visite d’aujourd’hui est une promenade modérée, alors j’espère que vous portez vos chaussures les plus confortables. Ne vous inquiétez pas, nous ferons des arrêts pour vous rafraîchir et vous montrerons les meilleurs endroits pour vous reposer et vous détendre. Suivez votre navigation, et commençons notre visite à la première destination.
