Hungary has a vicissitudes of European history, and at the same time it has a romantic and fanatical temperament. This unique temperament is attributed to Hungary’s strong artistic atmosphere. Hungary is a paradise for music, and famous musicians such as Liszt have also appeared in history.
The passion and wildness shown in Liszt’s music infiltrate the lives of Hungarians. Take dining for example. Almost every day there is a meal with folk music and dance as the accompaniment. Girls in bright national costumes and young people in riding boots and black top hats dance cheerfully and enthusiastically. The men dance a little It's like tap dancing, supplemented by clapping hands and legs, and whistling when you're excited. When the mood strikes, the audience will join in the dance impromptu. The girl, accompanied by the handsome Hungarian young man, will fully release the passion in her body in the wild music.
The Danube River passes through the city, dividing Budapest into Buda and Pest. Buda is relatively classical, while Pest is relatively modern. The Danube is not blue, on the contrary, it is a bit gray. The song "The Blue Danube" (The Blue Danube) is more appropriately translated as "The Melancholy Danube". This sadness may come from a statue standing beside the Danube River? It is always looking at the Hungarian poet Petofi.
In a sense, Hungarians, who are always in turmoil, only want freedom. The spirit of freedom is also the crystallization of the romance and fanaticism of Hungarians in my understanding. Hungary has always been a country that has been constantly striving for freedom. The Statue of Liberty, which stands on the green hilltop in the center of Budapest, holds olive branches in both hands and looks up to the sky, as if to tell the story of the rarity and value of freedom.
