    (Translated by Google) The courtyard of the Lions, or the large courtyard of the monumental complex of Buda Castle. From fortress to a residential palace for the Royal Hungary, now it houses several museums that should be fixed stages for each tourist visiting the city. Huge stone sculptures of ferocious lions with gaping jaws should scare the customer, blatant symbol of power and wealth of the Magyar, this building exemplifies in an imposing building recognizable from every corner of the city, and of which it solidly characterizes the skyline! The courtyard often hosts very interesting events, shows and markets. Unfortunately the evening is not accessible and the area is completely depopulated! Not to be missed! @ gargio76 (Original) Il cortile dei Leoni, ovvero il grande cortile d'onore del complesso monumentale del Castello di Buda. Da fortezza a Palazzo residenziale per i reali d'Ungheria, ospita oggi diversi importanti musei che dovrebbero essere tappe fisse per ogni turista in visita in città. Enormi sculture lapidee di feroci leoni con le fauci spalancate dovrebbero intimorire l'avventore, palese simbolo della potenza e della ricchezza magiara, che questa costruzione esemplifica in un possente edificio ben riconoscibile da ogni angolo della città, e di cui ne caratterizza solidamente lo skyline! Il cortile ospita spesso manifestazioni, spettacoli e mercatini sempre molto interessanti. Purtroppo la sera non è accessibile e la zona si spopola completamente! Da non perdere! @gargio76

    Very beautiful monumental courtyard. It is accessed through a door with beautifully crafted lion statues. True imperial heart of Budapest. A courtyard worth visiting during a tour around Buda

    (Translated by Google) The Court of the Lions is part of the royal palace, which houses the city museum of Budapest and the Hungarian National Gallery. The entrance to the two museums is included in the Budapest card and allows you to visit the grandiose palace, also enjoying the exceptional panorama of the city and the Danube. (Original) La corte dei Leoni fa parte del palazzo reale, che ospita il museo della città di Budapest e la Galleria Nazionale Ungherese. L'ingresso ai due musei è incluso nella Budapest card e permette di visitare il grandioso palazzo, godendo anche del panorama eccezionale sulla città e sul Danubio.

    LION'S COURT The Lion's Court is an enclosed courtyard accessed through an arched gateway, guarded by four lions. The monumental gate leading into the Lion's Court is flanked by two pairs of lions. The lions on the outer side of the gate convey a sense of calm and dignity, while the inner lions exude a more menacing presence. During the restoration, ornate gates of the King's Stairs and Diplomat's Stairs were removed from the Lion's Court. The entrance to the castle church and the chapel also vanished. From this point, you can visit the Hungarian National Library, whose entrance is beneath an arcaded Neo-Renaissance portico, as well as the Budapest History Museum, accessible across the arched gateway guarded by the lions.

    (Translated by Google) The reviews about the museum are contradictory, but what is around it clearly attracts attention, both easy to see and take a picture of as a souvenir. Open amazing views from two sides, and surprised the elevator to the top of the wall. Not far from the gate to the palace of the ruler, there is a cozy cafe. (Original) О музее отзывы противоречивые, зато то что вокруг него, однозначно привлекает внимание, как просто посмотреть, так и сфотографировать на память. Открывают потрясные виды с двух сторон, и удивил лифт на верх стены. Недалеко от ворот к дворцу правителя, есть уютная кафешка.

    (Translated by Google) Spectacular. I was thinking of visiting the castle and instead I found myself at the beer party (Original) Spettacolare. Pensavo di visitare il castello e invece mi sono trovato alla festa della birra

  • 5/5 Philipp K. 5 years ago on Google • 13 reviews
    The museum is worth a visit, we were particularly impressed by the special Frida Kahlo exhibition. In my opinion there is no reason to use the funicular up the small hill because you can climb the hill in about 15 minutes. Once at the top you have a wonderful view of Pest and the banks of the Danube.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful museum, beautiful presentations of Hungarian works of art. A nice discovery for me who was not a specialist. The collection of 19 and 20 th is very abundant which was fine with me not being too fan of the classic and rather adept of impressionism. Some remarkable new works of art including impressive framing (Original) Beau musée, belles présentations des œuvres d'art hongroises. Une belle découverte pour moi qui n'était pas spécialiste. La collection du 19 et 20 ème est très abondante ce qui m'allait bien n'étant pas trop fan du classique et plutôt adepte de l'impressionnisme. Quelques œuvres d'art nouveau remarquables notamment les encadrements impressionnants

    "Oroszlános udvar," or the Lion Courtyard, is a captivating place that adds a touch of regality to Budapest. Nestled within the historic Buda Castle, this courtyard boasts majestic lion sculptures, contributing to a grand and picturesque atmosphere. The intricately designed statues of lions evoke a sense of strength and history, creating a unique ambiance within the castle complex. Whether you're strolling through the courtyard or simply taking in the details, it's a wonderful spot to experience a blend of artistry and historical charm. A must-visit for those exploring Buda Castle and its rich cultural heritage.

    Beautiful place to visit. Liked the view of the city and lighting during night. A walk from Castle garden bazaar to Matyas church is most common for visiting the Buda side of the city. Night view of Chain bridge, river front, parliament and other building is unique.

    (Translated by Google) I confess to the wonderful environment, but it is hell with a stroller, wheelchair. Nowhere is it designed for wheelchair toilets or for toddlers. When a person with a disability toilet is finally found, it turns out that it is not because Master Mek has placed it so high that the cock can be called an anvil, not a wheelchair toilet. (Original) Bevallom őszintén csodálatos környezet, de babakocsival, kerekesszékel ez maga a pokol. Sehol nincs ki alakítva kerekesszékes toalett, vagy kisgyermekes számára pelenkázó. Amikor meg végre talál az ember egy mozgássérült WC akkor kiderül, hogy az mégsem az mert Mek mester ember olyan magasra helyezte, hogy az kakas üllőnek nevezhető nem pedig kerekesszékes WC-nek.
