Széchenyi (Julyo) - live at Mercantile, Dublin IE Written and performed by Giulio D'Agostino (BMI) The Széchenyi Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. The bridge has the name of István Széchenyi, a major supporter of its construction, attached to it, but is most commonly known as the Chain Bridge. A plaque on the Pest side of the river reads "To commemorate the only two surviving bridges designed by William Tierney Clark: The Széchenyi Chain Bridge over the Danube at Budapest and the suspension bridge over the Thames at Marlow, England." The bridge featured prominently Matthew Barney's Cremaster 5, serving as a reference to Harry Houdini.
