48h in BUDAPEST: Matthias Church

48h in Budapest Matthias Church tour and visit

Let's continue our Budapest sightseeing tour, shall we?:) So we saw Heroes' Square (if you haven't, see it here), and then the bus took us over the long Chain Bridge to gigantic Buda Castle. There are a lot of pretty parts within the majestic Buda Castle, but definitely the most wonderful part for me was Matthias Church. No surprise here, as this church is considered one of the prettiest churches in Budapest and one of the most unique religious buildings in the whole Europe!

Hajde da nastavimo nase panoramsko razgledanje Budimpeste, hocemo li?:) Dakle videli smo Trg Heroja (ako ste preskocili, vidite ovde), i onda nas je autobus odvezao preko dugog Lancanog mosta do gigantske Budimske tvrdjave. Postoji puno divnih delova u sklopu Budimske tvrdjave, ali definitivno meni najfascinantniji deo je Matejina crkva (neko je zove i Matijasova)! Nimalo iznenadjujuce jer se ova crkva smatra jednom od najlepsih crkava u Budimpesti i jednom od najunikatnijih religioznih gradjevina u citavoj Evropi!

Matthias Church Roamn Catholic church built in Gothic style

Matthias church is a Roman Catholic church. Originally it was built in 11th century and re-built in 15th century in recognizable Gothic style (I guess that's the reason why I like this church, as I've always considered Gothic architectural style to be pretty amazing). Its founder was King Stephan of Hungary, yet it was named after King Matthias who changed one of the main towers in 19th century.

Matejina crkva je Rimokatolicka crkva. Prvobitno je sagradjena u 11. veku i obnovljena u 15. veku u prepoznatljivom Gotskom stilu (pretpostavljam da je ovo razlog zasto mi se ova crkva toliko dopada, jer me je gotika tj. gotski stil izgradnje oduvek fascinirao). Njen osnivac je bio Kralj Stefan, ali je ime dobila po Kralju Mateji koji je promenio crkveni toranj u 19. veku.

Unfortunately this was a quick and short sightseeing tour, so we didn't have enough time to see the interior of the church which is equally beautiful (I saw some photos on the Internet)! But I'm so glad for being able to personally admire this marvelous architecture in front of me! No joking, I even think I could spend all day there photographing church's colorful roof and ivory-colored "lacy" ornaments!

Nazalost ovo je bila brza i kratka tura razgledanja, tako da nismo imali dovoljno vremena da vidimo i unutrasnjost crkve koja je podjednako lepa (videla sam neke slike na netu). Ali mi je drago sto sam imala prilike da se licno divim ovoj velicanstvenoj gradjevini ispred mene! Bez sale, mislim da sam cak mogla provesti i citav dan fotografisuci sareni krov crkve i spoljasnje "cipkaste" ornamente u boji slonove kosti!
