The Budapest City Park is Europe’s most complex park where Culture Meets Nature
City Park Budapest is home to an exceptionally complex network of cultural, heritage, art institutions, recreational and leisure facilities. This outstanding blend, has been the Hungarian capital’s most popular park and destination for over a century, undoubtedly enjoying the love of the local public as well as by visitors.
The City Park is home to the Vajdahunyad Castle and the Jaki Chapel, the Széchenyi Thermal Bath, which is Budapest’s largest hot spring complex, the Budapest Zoo and Botanical Garden, the Capital Circus of Budapest, Europe’s oldest and largest outdoor ice rink/boating lake, as well as recently renovated and newly built museums and art institutions, namely Museum of Fine Arts, Kunsthalle, Museum of Ethnography, House of Music, Hungary, and the House of Hungarian Millennium. The Park provides an unparalleled mix of creative, multi-sensory art and leisure experiences unique in Europe. There are only a handful other public parks in the world with a rich, more than a century-old institutional network built in the park itself rather than around it.
