Erzsébet híd (Elizabeth Bridge) was named after Queen Elizabeth, the beloved empress of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy assassinated in 1898. During the time of its construction – it was opened to the public in 1903 -, the original suspension bridge was an engineering miracle that raised eyebrows all over the globe. Unfortunately, retreating Wermacht troops blew up the first version of Erzsébet híd in 1945, and deprived us of the chance to witness its impressive glory. Two decades later, between 1961 and 1964, it was rebuilt according to the plans of Pál Sávoly, and required minor tweaks throughout the following decades. The spectacular floodlights projecting the tri-colours of the Hungarian flag on Erzsébet híd’s pillars were a present from the Japanese state in 2009, and were a creation of Isii Motoko. As for the usual data, on the Pest side, it is anchored to Március 15. tér (March 15 Square), granting an easy access to Váci utca (Váci Street) and downtown Budapest. On the Buda side, it is anchored at the the winding staircases leading up to Gellért-hegy (Gellért Hill) and Citadella (The Citadel).

Erzsébet Bridge is the third newest bridge of Budapest. It is absolutely gorgeous at night. You can see the Parliament, and the Buda Castle from there. Absolutely stunning view at night..

Elisabeth Bridge (Hungarian: Erzsébet híd) is the third newest bridge of Budapest, Hungary, connecting Buda and Pest across the River Danube. The bridge is situated at the narrowest part of the Danube in the Budapest area, spanning only 290 m. It is named after Elisabeth of Bavaria, a popular queen and empress of Austria-Hungary, who was assassinated in 1898. Today, her large bronze statue sits by the bridge's Buda side connection in the middle of a small garden.
