When visiting another country you regularly come across something that you don't quite understand. This mass of candlelights was one of these moments. Situated just outside one of the main train stations in Budapest, the Western Station (Nyugati palyaudvar), there had obviously been some kind of celebration or commemoration the night before. With no signs to explain it we could only guess.
Yeah, it was a commemoration near Western Railways Station. In January 2011 there was mass destruction event: there was a party place (West Balkan) that was designated for 400 people and there was about 1300 inside. The crowd couldn't move in the club then there was a panic, they tried to run out of the club. 3 teenage girls were dead because the crowd overran them. So you could see many candles there.
