Hungarian Parliament Building (Országház)

Tietoa

Nopeat faktat: Step close and you'll notice the opulent interior hides an astonishing 691 rooms, with a central hall crowned by a 96-metre dome that dominates the skyline. Inside, visitors encounter the Holy Crown of Hungary displayed beneath that dome, a tiny but potent symbol amid soaring marble, carved statues, and glittering gold leaf.

Kohokohdat: Behind the central glass display the Holy Crown of St. Stephen sits under soft gilt and spotlights, its enamel and precious stones catching the riverlight like a tiny sun, a relic spirited out after World War II and not returned until 1978. Towering above, a 96-meter dome crowns a labyrinth of 691 rooms, and after dark the Neo-Gothic spires and red roof tiles are bathed in amber lights so the whole façade resembles a lit honeycomb.
