You're standing on Heroes' Square in Budapest, in front of the Museum of Fine Arts, the Szépművészeti Múzeum. Take in that grand neoclassical façade. The building was designed by Albert Schickedanz and finished in 1906. Now turn around. Across the square stands the Hall of Art, the Műcsarnok, with the Millennium Monument in between. Schickedanz designed those too, so the whole square works as one ensemble.
