The Hungarian Parliament is the most famous in the world, said to me once a Hungarian girl I used to work with and I thought really, girl, cause I have no idea what you are talking about. But I am not an architecture expert and when I google most famous parliaments, there’s the Hungarian at the top spot, so there you have it. It appears that I am the ignorant one.
I have to say, this exchange happened before I had ever been to Budapest and a few months later I went and the massive white Gothic building on the bank of the Danube was there not caring about what anyone thought of it. It knew it was the boss.
