On a side note i remember one great evening i had in Budapest some 30 years ago, i went up the hill to some nice old looking looking structure, there was a small coffee shop there i spend few hours sipping tea and looking at Danube. It was not blue unfortuately, Strauss was colourising it (hah), unless we counted the huge blue neon commercial reflecting in the water.
The other most significant sight was group of Romani men trying to make tourists play shell game, with various effect, nobody got angry though.
Now in the same place there is some gentrified resteurant where i couldn’t probably afford breathing.

What’s worse, scam or gentrification?
Gentrification, it’s very hard to reverse.
