Fisherman's Bastion in Budapest, Hungary, is a stunning neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque structure that offers panoramic views of the Danube River and the cityscape, including the Hungarian Parliament Building. Built between 1895 and 1902, it is named after the guild of fishermen that was responsible for defending this stretch of the city walls during the Middle Ages. The bastion features seven ornate towers, each symbolizing one of the seven Magyar tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin in 895.
