The imposing construction of the "Bazar" along the Quay, with its terraces and steps in Italian Renascence style (a work of Ybl), completes the splendid panorama of the Castle-hill in a most worthy manner. In St. George's Place, we notice at the side of the Royal Castle, its adjoining buildings: the stables, the barracks of the Castle Guard, (further down the riding-school and a beautiful bronze group representing a horse-trainer), then the Palace of the Archduke Joseph, the residence of the Prime Minister and the Honved Ministry building.
