Virgin Mary Statue

Sculpture

👍 On the southern walls of Buda Castle a four meter high statue depicting Virgin Mary and the child. One can walk up here from the lower funicular station turning left... or right across the terrace from upper funicular station. Nice, different angle of Budapest skyline can be admired from here.

    I was here for the great view of the city. Yes there are several views but i was looking this one specifically. I used small tripod and set it on the ledge to get a low ISO shot. There was not enough room to set up a full sized tripod with people walking by.

    Maria Anya, the Holy Mother of God is a 4 meter high statue that looks out over the Danube from a ledge of Buda Castle. From here you have a spectacular view over Budapest.

    A great location to look over the Pest side of Budapest, especially the Chain Bridge and Hungarian Parliament. This would be a particularly good viewpoint at night. You can't actually see the statue front very easily from the castle walls, you have to go down the hill towards the Danube to see it front on.

    One of the best viewpoints of the Castle. In good weather conditions you can spot somee villages around Pest (like Godollo), and Ferihegy.

    Best view of the Danubian part of Budapest in my opinion

  • 5/5 William D. 3 months ago on Google • 156 reviews New
    The statue is pure madness. Incredibly beautiful, of a construction that defies the imagination. You stand there, unable to look away. It's pure breathtaking, a work that haunts you. Then you take a look at the view... banal, nothing more.

    Just sit next to it and enjoy breathtaking view on Budapest. Especially during the night.
