    This is a pretty nice fountain located across the Franciscan church. Not only does it have some very cool details, but also some history written in it.

    The Nereid Fountain is a beautiful fountain located in the center at the intersection of various main roads and in particular in the Piazzetta where the Church of San Francesco is also located; it has an important double base and on two sides of the lower one there are two water dispensers available for passers-by; both bases, both the lower and upper one, are embellished with neo-classical decorations and above these there are two Nymphs dispensing water.

    The well, although the water is not bubbling, gives the atmosphere of the space. It fits well with its environment. It shows its beauty in sunny weather.

    first source of drinking water in the city created from the excavations for the construction of the Franciscan convent. Today it no longer has water. It is the beginning of a pleasant walk towards the Central café

    Beautiful statue in the middle of Budapest from 1835, almost 200 years old. It is still in good condition because it was restored in 1999. The statue includes two female figures carrying two water jugs. One on the head, the other on the ground. My colleague Sergio was quite impressed by this statue. That's why I had to take a photo of her so he would have a memory. I hope he can still sleep at night. Greetings go out.

👍👍 The statue of Stephen I, also known as King Saint Stephen who was the first King of Hungary from 1000 or 1001, until his death in 1038 riding on a horse is a must see while visiting Budapest.
