Holiday in Budapest, 28/04/2006 - 02/05/2006.


Apologies for the slight presepective distortion, but I squashed this image to get it to fit into this page. This iron statue of a Red Army
soldier used to stand in Budapest as a symbol of the Russian army's liberation of the city in 1944 and 1945. Later it served
as a reminder to the Hungarian people of their subsequent opression by Stalin.
