    what do you do with all of the humongous monuments erected during the dictatorship once the regimen is kaput? well, make an attraction out of it of course! the statues are displayed in a rather spartan setting and i wished there had been somebody around to explain to us in detail the history of each one but we were left to our own devices. left with a cd with "the best of communism" (including such hits as "onward red guards, proletarians" and, who can forget, "we thank you, comrade rakosi") and a t-shirt of "the 3 terrors: stalin, mao and lenin - world tour 1917-1979" (1948-hungary). my friend teased we were going to be stopped and questioned at customs. the park is probably not an essential sight in budapest, but if time allows go for it.

    Statues from Budapest's past displayed in this park give pause for thought.

    This park, outside the city center a bit, is a little dissapointing. It cost 1500 HUF for adults, 1000 HUF for students. There is nothing super special here, just a few statues in the soviet style and they are all places nicely. It doesnt compare to some of the others I have seen in Moscow and Lituania, but if you have time and really want to see it you can make a trip out there. There are only about 15 displays of statues, and actually I saw some cool looking soviet style statues in Budapest still standing. The cool thing we did happen to find next to the park was a special exhibit. We didnt have to pay anything and ended up finding an instructional movie on how to spy on people, something that would have been shown to a member of the KGB or something like that. It was way more interesting than the park itself, but I am not sure if it was a temporary exhibit or not. It is directly across from the entrance tot he park in a black building that says "Exhibit" on it.
