Steven Back, a Hungarian entrepreneur, has called China home for nearly two decades. Drawn to the country's rapid scientific and technological advancements, Back found Shanghai's blend of modernity and historical charm reminiscent of his homeland.
In a recent video, Back teams up with his Chinese friend Sean to uncover unique Hungarian influences scattered throughout Shanghai. Their journey leads them to architectural marvels designed by Hungarian architect Laszlo Hudec, including the iconic Park Hotel.
\"The Park Hotel isn't just a structure; it's a bridge that connects Shanghai's rich past with its vibrant present,\" says Back. \"It's also a symbol of the enduring friendship between China and Hungary.\"
Back's exploration highlights the seamless integration of Hungarian design in Shanghai's landscape, showcasing how cultural exchange can create lasting bonds between nations.
