Budapest - Municipal Park

(Local Name: Városmajor Park) Városmajor Park (Municipal Park) is about 10ha (25 ac) in extent. This welcome green area is nearly 200 years old and was once used for hunting. The old trees are a charming feature and these, together with the attractive tennis-courts and games areas, attract many citizens on fine days. On the northwest side of the park stands the Hotel Budapest, an imposing circular tower block of 18 stories. A cog-wheel railroad nearby ascends to Széchenyi-hegy.
