A little pushed for time this evening, so please can I send you elsewhere (and request that you come back here again tomorrow)?

And the elsewhere is this CNN article on the hidden thermal caves beneath Budapest.

And some stunning images:

I’ve been to Budapest a few times, and I had no idea about any of this.

I probably should have asked more questions.
