BUDAPEST AS LONDON
Location Library Hungary
London is no exception for Budapest, a capital renowned for doubling as various European cities. Hungary's diverse architecture allows Budapest to mimic many aspects of the UK's capital, shaped by different historical eras. The city features Gothic and Neo-Gothic lookalikes, Classicist structures, Victorian schools, gritty factories, and Brutalist offices. Charming streets with lamp posts, redbrick houses, parks, and old industrial zones also add to the authentic atmosphere. While there are some limitations, smart framing and added details, like a red telephone box or a Union Jack, can convincingly recreate London’s iconic charm. The city offers filmmaker-friendly conditions and cost-effective solutions, attracting productions from around the world.
