Description

The park is dominated by the Vajdahunyad Castle - originally built for the 1896 millennium celebrations - which represents every style of Hungarian architecture. In summer, there is a lake for boating, which in winter is turned into a huge and very popular skating rink. It also houses the Museum of Agriculture and a statue of George Washington, erected to thank America for taking in so many Hungarian immigrants in the early twentieth century.
