Things I Miss About Budapest: Presence of History

There are so many historical locations in the Budapest that just about where ever you are there is something historical around. Now looking back at the summer spent in Budapest I truly find myself longing for all those evidences of past times and the former glory. These ruins in the Margit Island is one good example.

How old are they - and, by extension, what culture do they represent?

Couple of hundred years. To be honest I am not quite sure which of the several ruins on the island these were but the most notable ruins are from 12th - 13th century.

And what comes to the culture they represent? Magyar I would say.
