St. Stephen's Basilica, Budapest, Hungary

As the holiday season kicks off, St. Stephen's Basilica becomes the dazzling centrepiece of one of Budapest's iconic Christmas markets. The fair buzzes with the festive spirit, offering a mix of Hungarian craft, festive décor and local delicacies, capturing the essence of a traditional Christmas.

The neoclassical basilica honours Stephen I, also known as King Saint Stephen, who was Hungary's first monarch. Completed in 1906 after decades of construction, it is topped by a towering dome. The interior design combines traditional and religious motifs with modern artistic techniques, creating a harmonious blend of old and new. Visitors can explore its chapels, admire the intricate stained glass or view a relic that is believed to be the mummified right hand of the king himself. For those seeking a panoramic view, the dome has an observation deck where visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the city's skyline, as shown in today's image.
