This is a huge monument. Be sure to have some knowledge of the significance of the figures or go with a guide. Very interesting history.

This really isn't worth going out of your way to visit unless you are visiting the thermal baths nearby. It was easy to get to but kind of disappointing once there.

The Heroes' Square is one of the most important landmarks in the Pest side of Budapest. Flanked by two national museums, it features the statues of the heroes that marked the complex history of Hungary since the arrival of the seven Magyar tribe leaders and the proclamation of Hungary as a Christian by King St. Stephen in the year 1,000. The colossal size of the statues is one of the most amazing aspects, as well as the nearby park with ample green areas and food kiosks
