Ferenciek tere

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferenciek tere (English: Square of the Franciscans) is a square and junction in Budapest. In addition to being the site of a station on the M3 (North-South) line of the Budapest Metro, it is an important public transport junction for the BKV bus line number 7, which connects Pest and southern Buda.

The place is right in the middle of the city. The fashionable shopping avenue Váci utca opens from there. The square hosts an internationally recognized gourmet restaurant and a bookstore-publisher complex for roman catholic religious literature. The Erzsébet híd bridge over the Danube is five minutes walk from the Metro.
