    City Park (Városliget) is one of the most beautiful and popular public parks in Budapest, where many come to relax and enjoy the sun. The park used to be a royal hunting ground, and later it was turned into a public park with numerous sights and attractions. In the park you can visit the Zoo, Széchenyi Thermal Bath, Vajdahunyad Castle, City Circus, Gundel Restaurant and much more. The park also has a lake, where you can ice skate or row a boat, depending on the season. The city park is an ideal place for children and adults, who can enjoy nature, culture and entertainment in the heart of the city.

    (Translated by Google) Fascinating city park just behind Budapest's famous "Heroes' Square". Among clearings, thickets, eclectic palaces and castles is also possible on hot summer days to rent a boat and spend a few hours to row .. very British! Experience absolutely to do !! (Original) Affascinante parco cittadino proprio alle spalle della famosa "piazza degli Eroi" di Budapest. Tra radure, boschetti, eclettici palazzi e castelli c'è anche la possibilità nelle calde giornate estive di affittare una barca e passare qualche ora a remare .. molto British! Esperienza assolutamente da fare!!

    Great little pond, in the summer you can rent a water bike and, regardless of your age, entertain yourself like an elderly person on a Balaton holiday. ⛱ 30 min is perfectly enough to "bike" around the whole water space, scare off some ducks, wave at lovebirds hiding at the shore, and practice all water manoeuvres that you can think of—going as fast as you can, backwards, or around in circles like in a low-budget, water version of Fast & Furious. 💴 3500 huf for so much fun—totally worth it! ☝️ PSA: remember to wear sunscreen, it's a large open space you can burn your thighs.

    Awesome place that changes with every season as far as I see reviews. Right now it's fall 🍁 and you can see the stream of hot water pouring with a layer of mist over the water. Really an amazing site to see outside in the big city.

    This is a place where you can skate winter time and boat else. The place was reconstructed a few years before which made comfortable to store your belongings, for instance. The main building where you can enter is a nice, old building and it is a real fun to skate on the ice in this environment.

    An oasis of tranquility and natural beauty in the heart of Budapest! The City Lake and Garden is a hidden gem that offers respite from the bustling city life. Strolling along the charming pathways, I felt a sense of calmness and connection with nature. The well-maintained gardens, dotted with benches and picnic spots, provide a peaceful escape for locals and tourists alike. Whether you're taking a leisurely walk, enjoying a picnic, or simply basking in the peaceful ambiance, this place is a true sanctuary for the soul. #BudapestEscape #NatureRetreat

    Amazing place to visit in Budapest❤️

  • 4/5 Stuart H. 8 months ago on Google
    Overall a nice park with many statues and old buildings scattered about it. There are also several toilets,some you pay for,one is free but some of the pay ones where out of action. There also a massive sloping garden with a metal memorial between to two sides of it. When we visited there was no water in either the lake or the moat and it looked like it was going to stay that way for a little while. There is also a brand new cultural centre/music hall just been built in a modern style.

    Be careful: there are some food stalls in the area (semi-fried potato skewers) that try to scam you. They say a price (800 HUF), and when they deliver what you ordered they change the price! (3000 HUF!). It's an anecdote, but it's still a scam. At least in two positions.
