No, its not
some areas ain't that bad, Argentina used to be really rich and all for some time and left a lot of great pieces of architecture, shame it has ended and the country never really recovered
It's opulent. The pearl of latin America.

Budapest's most popular public park, named Városliget, will be undergoind a huge refurbishing and re-functioning process in the coming years, with a whole museum quarter established in the stead of older, unused and rundown buildings and parking lots while also creating more green areas inside the park. The project is financed by the government and the EU.
Here's a little teaser for the project: youtu.be
Pic related is how the new Museum of Ethnography will look like once it's built
majestuous
Another significant urban project is the development of the Kopaszi dam area in southern Budapest, which includes the construction of a whole new neighbourhood in the Lágymányosi bay with modern apartment buildings, offices, shops and public spaces, as well as a 29 storey high, 120 metres tall skyscraper, which - if built - will be the country's highest building, and its first skyscraper
that's quite impressive ngl
it looks like a building of Uncharted games
it doesn't look bad but it's also quite bland t bh
but maybe that's for better especially as the area doesn't have any other highrises yet
here's a low quality bird's eye view pic
the same architects of this
yeah, it was abandoned many years, something curious because is in the middle of the city, now is a monument
Finally, here's the government's much criticized project of completely reconstructing every building that was damaged and destroyed during the siege of Budapest and afterwards by the commies in the Castle District, including a riding hall, the Guard's House, an ornate flight of stairs. They also want to restore the Royal Palace into its former glory, by restoring some of its representative rooms and its art nouveau domes.
Although I think there are more pressing matters in Hungary than tidying up buildings and reconstructing old ones, I'm all for this project.
>yeah, it was abandoned many years
wew why?
LITTLE ASIAN BUILDINGS
thats not feng shui at all
It was an hospital but after the civil war, in Franco's dictatorship, was used as a warehouse and was slowly abandoned until 1980
>hospital
why would you build a hospital like this
it looks more of a palace or something
>using Korean architecture as an example of East Asian architecture
Fuck outta here, Kim.
FRANCE SMASH FENG SHUI
It's Chinese architecture in Korea not Korean architecture desu
Korean architecture is mud huts and designated dog eating streets
HOW DO WESTERNERS EVEN
nope
Chinese, Korean and Japanese architecture are all very distuingishable
NOT AN ARGUMENT
...
even by abusing perspective it's not even 1/3 as big as the enceinte wall
how knows?
Hospitals were serious business in the west.
this
Japanese castles are more aesthetic
annd why the fuck?
it doesn't make any "revenue" does it, it isn't representative either
I dont get it
Because they were religious building dedicated to the good of society.
Revenue was irrelevant in the middle ages.
Sorry but I think you're the only person on earth to think that.
Objectively, and it's a bit sad, nothing is more aesthetic than Chambord.
It's the pinnacle of architecture.
not feng shui/10
you don't need feng shui when you're the most powerful man on earth

do you live in NYC?
people come to budapest for real history, not reconstructed fake stuff. if you make everything look shiny and new you risk loosing the historical appeal because it will look like disneyland
look at Paris, it's hundreds of years old and it still looks and feels old despite being refurbished to a modern standard
Yeah, specifically in Queens.
Brooklyn Borough Hall in the background.
Asian castles look comfy as fuck, but I wouldn't call them more aesthetic than a big beautiful château.
