Hungary



This nice market snapshot comes from Budapest, Hungary, as you can see, showing the Central (or Great) Market Hall. It's the largest indoor market in Budapest, both designed and built by Samu Pecz around 1896. A distinctive architectural feature is the roof which was restored to have colorful Zsolnay tiling.
Most of the stalls on the ground floor offer produce, meats, pastries, candies, spices, and spirits such as paprika, tokaji etc. The second floor has mainly eateries and souvenirs. I see many many tasty things ;)



And great Hungarian Europa CEPT stamp from 2012 inviting as to visit Hungary. The red pepper and grapes that form "H" and "U" really match with all the colorful products on the front of the postcard.  Thanks a lot, Karr!
