| Kaptol....
After a stroll around Jelacic Square, I headed to the first of the two
old cities, Kaptol. The name of the cathedral was a mouthful, the Cathedral
of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Saintly Kings Stephen
and Ladislav. Fortunately, it is usually referred to as "the Cathedral".
It was easy to find it with the two neo Gothic spires of the cathedral
towering nearby. Right next to it was the market. Even though it was
Sunday in one of Europe's Catholic strongholds (after Poland), the market
was bustling. I took several photos but my favorite was the first with
colored corn and fall pumpkins. |
