Budapest Parks and Gardens: Picture of Margaret IslandA large number of parks present themselves to those visiting Budapest and are sprinkled all around the city, with many being especially close to the city centre itself and often featuring their very own flower gardens. A true haven for local wildlife, the nearby Budakeszi Vadaspark is close to central Budapest and a great place for nature lovers, while children will enjoy spending time at Csepeli Strandfurdo Park, where open space is plentiful and swimming pools are available, offering a great way to cool down in the hot Hungarian sunshine.

Within Pest, the Karolyi Gardens soon fill up during the summer and is filled with sheltered seating areas, while the jogging trails at Feneketlen Park are often busy first thing in the morning. Later in the afternoon, families often come here to feed the ducks and relax. The biggest park in the whole of Budapest, People's Park is arguably the most important of the city's many public green spaces and its vast size dominates the area.
