Hungary Hungarian Parliament, Budapest
A popular tourist destination in Budapest. I had to wait 3 days for this shot because there were always boats in front of the location, but to get the parliament right-centred you need to wait until the boats are gone.
Photography Tips
The best lights are usually early in the morning. Waiting for the city lights is also a great alternative. Take a long exposure during the day because the river is quite busy with boats and stuff so you can blend them away. Search for the center using the windows in the middle. The whole building is symmetric so search for the exact middle to get the best-looking picture... (just my 2 cents).
Travel Information
You can ride the Metro or Tram to Batthyany Ter. Parking is available and it's just a couple of meters from the spot.
