The Pasha's Buda, 1560

In 1560 Buda sits as the Ottoman provincial capital of Budin, a fortified river town where a pasha's administration, janissary garrisons and caravan trade shape everyday life. Walkers will encounter Gothic church towers reworked with minarets, steaming Turkish baths on the Danube, crowded quays with ferries and caravans, and soldiers posted along the castle walls.

34 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 12 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Budapest as it stood in 1560 (“Ottoman Hungary”).
