After Jurisics Square and the castle, we can see the Crown Guard bunker, the Calvary stations, and trees with incredible root systems. Reaching the Calvary Church, we can enjoy the summer evening view of the city. Soon at the Trianon Cross (and the new lookout), we can again experience beautiful panoramas, and it’s not over yet! The Suleiman Lookout again reveals the (now glowing) beauty of the city, then we pass by the Arboretum, and the Bechtold Center is also on the way to the finish.
