Vajdahunyad Castle and Park

I went to Vajdahunyad Castle and the surrounding park in Budapest, Hungary. The famous Széchenyi Thermal Baths are located within the park, so you can walk there. The park has Heroes' Square and a lake, so you can feel the European atmosphere while walking around, and you can see the castle floating on the lake. When you walk around the lake, the castle can be seen from various angles, which makes for great Instagram photos, so why not take a walk in this park after visiting the hot springs? 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/9XEvkNELTwhhJnmQ8 #0yentravelFebruary2025#Budapest#Hungary
