Departing Budapest, well known for its thermal baths and pools
Here flying over Platinus Strand baths
Down there Gellart Thermal bath
Also on the hill Szabadság szobor, liberty statue and on the side of the hill Gellért Hill Cave, a grotto chapel.
Gellart Thermal bath inside
Now that’s a nice place for a swim!
The Hungarian parliament building is very nicely modeled
The real deal
Actually looks like a model too
Budapest reminds me of one of my favorite movies, The Grand Budapest hotel. The hotel seen in the movie is just a model, not real. Most of the movie was shot in Czechia where the hotel is located that inspired the one in the movie. Grand hotel Pupp in Karlovy Vary
Making Czechia even more awesome!
Following the big toll route along the Žumberak and Samobor mountains
To Zagreb, the capital of Croatia
Onwards to Slovenia, I’ll be back in Croatia later
Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia
The castle in the above picture. A glass funicular transports people up the hill.
Picture from the famous dragon bridge with Ljubljana cathedral in the background
On to the coast. I got in some nasty weather while climbing over the tall mountain range. Thanks to 3D view finder no issues navigating between the mountain peaks. Bovec in a valley between the mountains.
Flying through the valley, Kanin mountain behind me
Krn mountain to the left of me
The view from Krn on a good day
Trieste, Italy on the North-East end of the Adriatic sea
Remains of a Roman theater in the middle of the city
I still haven’t seen any moving boats in FS 2020, there should be a few here…
The Romans left a full size amphitheater here, as well as a temple to Augustus and Arch of the Sergii city gate. Build to last.
Zooming over Park Prirode Ucka
Approaching Rijeka, moving boats spotted!!!
Otočac in the Gacka river valley
Lake Krušćica, heading South currently
Over the Adriatic sea again with Nacionalni park Paklenica behind me.
The Croatian landscape near Kakma
Split, Croatia’s second largest city with many things to see
I bet Croatia inspired games like Myst and Riven.
Heading inland again, back to the mountains past Fortress Klis
It’s to the left in that picture, not visible. It looks pretty cool on Google The city and walls of Meereen from Game of Thrones were filmed there.
Ending the day at Sinj, which was already half hidden in the shadows from the mountains
