 | Budapest The Little Princess Reviews | 1 - 10 of 20 |  |
The Little Princess is one of Budapest's best know and most popular bronze statues. The statue is life size and looks like a little child sitting on the fence along the Danube River Banks. It is listed in almost every guide book I read and on many internet sites. Being curious I had to seek out the Little Princess for myself. its definately a curosity. The statue is wearing a jesters hat and is perched on the rails of fence. It was designed by lazlo Marton. I am not sure what the big attraction is about this statue. I actually passed it a couple of times before realizing where it was located. Like many other things in Budapest from a distance it looks fine. Up close I found that one of the spires in its jester hat had been broken, probably by vandels. You can see the broken cap in my first photo here of the statue. If you are walking along the river front after viewing Parliment you might want to snap a picture of the statue just to say that you have seen it.

Here on VT the sculpture is called "The little princess" but when you take a closer look, it could just as well be a prince.
It might be the best to ask the artistic "father" of the bronce-sculpture, Laszlo Marton, who made the sculpture in 1989.
That small statue is sitting there on the fence of the tram going along the Danube, not far from Vigadó.

Located perched on the rails of the tram on the Pest side of the Danube you will find this statue designed by László Marton. I’m not quite sure why it is called the Little Princess, since it looks more like a Prince, but too each his own on how they interpret things.
There are some really great views of the Danube and Castle District from this point. Leave a Comment Phone: She can't talk..Directions: She is sitting on the railing near Vigado ter.

Ok Ok it sounds like this cutsey statue has been sponsored by the Disney Corporation, but one of the most well known statues in Budapest is a child-size bronze statue known as the "Little Princess." The urchin is sits Pest-side of the Danube, with the Royal Palace across the river behind her shoulder.
I like the contrast between rich and poor in this vista. Leave a Comment Phone: She can't talk..Directions: She is sitting on the railing near Vigado ter. Visit her by trams #2 2A at Vigado ter stop or metro M1 (Vorosmarty ter terminal).Website: http://nor.can.she.compile.websit.es

Whilst walking alongside the picturesque Danube Embankment, you will eventually pass Lazlo Marton's, little bronze statue of a child sitting on the railings by the tramline.
Referred to as "The Little Princess", she is seen wearing a Jester's hat. Leave a Comment Phone: She can't talk..Directions: She is sitting on the railing near Vigado ter. Visit her by trams #2 2A at Vigado ter stop or metro M1 (Vorosmarty ter terminal).Website: http://nor.can.she.compile.websit.es

When you walk alongside the Danube on the Pest side, you'll probably see him witting there just as always.. Apart from that stretch being a nice part to walk as it is almost a boulevard.. he is just waiting for us vistors to notice him... Leave a Comment

Between Chain and Erszebet bridges you will see a sculpture of a lovely boy, who is always there whether it is a snow, rain or a hot sun... Leave a Comment
