Photos from Budapest (part 1)

[tunixx]

This march I went to Budapest to compare the battlefield to the FB maps. Here are some photos from my trip.




First I went to Királyhágó tér . This is where scenario FB12 (The black ravens are flying) takes place. The photo was taken in AAA28 and shows what a wide city boulevard looks like.



This photo was taken standing in Ugocsa utca (hexside EEE26 / FFF 25) looking into Hertelendy utca. When I played the scenario I drove a Panther tank down this road.



Here we can see Márvány utca. The photo was taken from CCC27.

More to come.

very nice report, thanks.
I made the same thing at Primosole Bridge (Sicily) in 2004.
You could also add the images from above taken from Google Earth for a better comparison

Very cool! I wish I would have done this in 1991 when I was in Volgograd.

I join the others in thanking you for sharing the photos and for your effort to link them to specific hexes and perspectives on the FB map(s).

Thank you for taking the time to explore and photograph these locations and share them with us. These 3 Budapest threads are arguably the most enjoyable and informative content posted on this forum so far this year. You certainly seem to possess the qualifications to contribute to 'After the Battle' magazine.
