The changes wrought by democracy and free trade are no more obvious than in Hungary, a country formerly considered as far east in Europe as you could travel. Now, rather than being considered the last stop before Russia, the country is at the front of a huge economic boom sweeping the former Soviet Republics. It’s always been one of the most liberal of the former socialist countries, and joined the European Union in 2004. It’s no surprise then that the capital Budapest has a large Apple Center located along Andrassy Utca, the main shopping street of the city that resembles similar streets in Paris or Berlin. Thanks to Fred for photos of the Apple Center that show a Regent Street-like exterior with arches, wood flooring, black wood shelving, and the familiar white furniture.
