Budapest 4





































Walking around the city, we came across numerous bronze statues in the street, full of character and very good too.
And, these were in addition to the many sculptures and other statues, which seem to project more action and movement than is common.
All but one of the communist era statues have been removed to Statue Park on the outskirts of the city, although we didn't visit it. The communists were allowed to select one to remain in the city and they chose the one with the gold star on top, apparently for its position in view of the US Embassy!
