Itinerario

1. Traveling by subway to Kossuth Square in front of Parliament, we explore monuments from the 1956 revolution, before continuing to Liberty Square where we discuss aspects of the Cold War before the US Embassy, the monument to the Soviet Army, the statue of Ronald Reagan and an atomic shelter.

   25 min

2. We conclude outside the House of Terror, the imposing museum housed in the former headquarters of the communist secret services with a slab of the Berlin Wall in front. (Although the exhibit within is not included in the tour, this is the perfect endpoint for those interested in delving deeper into Hungary’s Cold War experience)

   15 min

3. Dropping by the former People’s Stadium (now Puskas Soccer Stadium), with classic socialist realist statues still standing, we can explore the heavy-handed propaganda favored by the regime.

   20 min

4. Discover the Ronald Reagan statue and the Hungarian sense of obligation to this US president for his efforts to bring down the Iron Curtain.

   10 min

5. Explore Bem József Square, where the first big demonstration of the 1956 uprising started. On the square is also a coffeehouse that has retained its original interior from the 1960s.

About Budapest

Budapest une la montañosa Buda y la llana Pest a ambos lados del Danubio: termas, palacios ribereños y animados ruin bars.

En el lado de Buda, la colina del Castillo alberga el Castillo de Buda, la iglesia de Matías y las torrecillas blancas del Bastión de los Pescadores, que miran todos hacia el río. El Puente de las Cadenas cruza hacia Pest, donde el Parlamento húngaro se extiende a lo largo de la orilla y la basílica de San Esteban se alza a pocas calles tierra adentro. La colina Gellért y su Ciudadela ofrecen las vistas más amplias.
