Porhászka László: The Danube Promenade - Our Budapest (Budapest, 1998)

350 Ft No previous individual publication has been devoted to the history of the Danube promenade, despite the fact that it has been part of the ÜNESCO World Heritage since 1987. The reader is now introduced to the once famous old row of hotels, their architecture and technological innovations, as well as the hotel row that has emerged more recently with its old and new members, the former and present-day restaurants, cafés and the stories related to these establishments. The volume provides descriptions of the works of art beautifying the promenade both today and in the past, monuments whose fate has been just as diverse as that of most other ornaments of Budapest.
