2018 - Hungary - Budapest - Great Market Hall. - 2 of 2
Main floor of The Great Market Hall.
Construction of the Great Market Hall started in 1894 according to the design of Samu Petz.
In 1896 a few days before the hand over fire destroyed about half of the roof.
After repairing the roof, the market opened on 15th March 1897 together with the other four Budapest Markets, built at the same time.
Beautiful Zsolnay tiles cover the enormous roof structure that make it the most spectacular element of the building from outside - yup, the tile guy from the Pecs.
The market hall is among the top five of the capital’s tourist attractions.
