You're standing in Városliget, Budapest's big City Park, next to the Museum of Ethnography. In Hungarian it's called the Néprajzi Múzeum. The building in front of you is still young. It opened in May 2022, exactly a hundred and fifty years after the museum was founded. It was designed by the firm Napur Architect. And it's a lovely setting, because this park is one of the oldest green spaces in the city.
