Hello and welcome to this UCPlaces Tour of The Queen of The Danube! You’ve made it to the enchanting city of Budapest, where history and modernity intertwine along the scenic banks of the legendary river. As we embark on this walking tour, you'll discover why Budapest is often hailed as the "Queen of the Danube." The city of Budapest is divided into two main parts: Buda and Pest, which are separated by the Danube River. This division reflects the historical, geographical, and cultural differences between the two areas, which were officially united in 1873. Pest, where we are now, is flat and has developed into the commercial and administrative heart of Budapest. It was also a separate town before the unification, and has a vibrant cultural and social scene. Pest is flatter and more densely built-up, housing most of the city's commercial activities and government buildings. The western side of the Danube River, Buda, is characterized by its hills and historical landmarks, such as Buda Castle. It was historically a separate town and has always been seen as the more upscale and residential part of the city. Buda is known for its rolling hills and greener, more residential areas. We will explore this area later in the tour. My name is Dave, and it’s my pleasure to show you around this stunning city in the heart of Europe. Today we will visit historically and culturally significant landmarks, to give you the best experience possible. From castles and cathedrals, to outdoor spa's and urban legends, you'll find it here. We start here in Városliget, also known as City Park, the largest public park located in Budapest and one of the most popular recreational areas in the city. This is a good place to start as we are conveniently located near parking, if you drove, as well as public transportation stops. Today’s tour is a moderate walk, so hopefully you’re wearing your most comfortable pair. Don’t worry, we will stop for refreshments, and show you the best spots to take a break and relax. Follow your navigation, and let's get started at our first destination on our tour.

Like most conquering overlords, the Spanish made short work of destroying the culture of the highly advanced civilizations of southern Mexico. The Aztecs and Mayans were no match for the steel and germs brought by the Europeans and were soon crushed under their boots as a worthless, inferior race. That stigma was still around and growing as the Anglos started to outnumber Hispanics in the new country and later state of Texas. In 1975, Jesse Trevino, who we will talk about later, painted a mural at Our Lady of the Lake University that would set the tone for many of the murals you will see today. The center of La Historia Chicana is a large Mexican pyramid, a reminder of the proud historical culture from which they had descended. Many of the murals you will see today refer to this culture. Currently in San Antonio that Hispanic influences growing. From pioneers like Henry B Gonzalez and Henry Cisneros to current political superstars Juan and Julian Castro the stigmas and stereotypes of the past are slowly fading. On this tour you will see a grassroots effort to raise awareness of the importance of culture and family in this predominantly Hispanic area at the same time you will see some pretty good art created by people that live in this neighborhood. This will be a special tour you will remember
