The park is simple, but we spent two hours there taking fun photos. If the weather hadn't been so beautiful, it might not have been as great of an experience. The statues are impressive but aren't labeled well. Thankfully we had a knowledgeable friend along who was able to give us some background on many of the statues. Otherwise, I... More

I love Budapest, but this was the best thing we went to see. This place gets no state funding, yet it preserves and teaches us about a time in history that should never be forgotten. Make the effort to get the bus out there, get a guided tour, buy some funny soviet souvenirs and try to imagine what Budapest was... More

We arrived at the wrong time to join a tour, so we purchased a guide book (1500 HUF). Really pleased we did, it's a brilliant guide to Hungarian history and easy to understand. The statues are quite something to behold and you can imagine how imposing some of them would have been in situe. The guidebook adds hugely to this,... More

We went late in the day around 6pm and we only had an hour, but its not very large and since the sun was getting low it set off the statues with a lovely red hue (quite appropriate) and we managed to take some stunning photos. Its a great place to go, not busy and not expensive, (about 1500 HUF... More

A very peculiar space but worth the visit just to step back into time during the Soviet/communist years in Hungary. Essentially, a park filled with statues taken from across Hungary and now stored here on the outskirts of Budapest. There's a tiny memorabilia kiosk at the entrance selling quirky Soviet/Communist bits and pieces - a treat - and there's also... More

Personally loved this monument park. Just way they arranged the site is great. Still wish I knew what the weird UFO looking thing just beyond the park was. If you're a fan of communist era icons this is the place to go. My only complaint is how to get there. If you take their service, the bus only seats about... More

This is a bit of a trek and our Time Out guide wasn't that clear on it's directions, but we are big 'fans' of Communist history so wanted to go to this 'statue junkyard'. The best option is to get the tram 6 or 4 to the end of it's line and then cross the road and get the 150... More

weird but wonderful, great photo ops. Easy bus from the center of town (go early it fills up) Great old statues of pinko commie dictators, great films of life under communism and surveillance culture. 20K agents recruited 50K assets to watch 100K targets. Who watches the watchers? If these guys saw our surveillance culture today they would consider themselves amateurs.... More

Like others here, I don't understand how anybody can post a negative review of this place. If you understand before hand that you are going to see statues that were collected after the fall of communism from the period of communist rule I don't understand what could be determined to be disappointing. Unfortunately for us the weather was miserable due... More
