City Park
This is a lovely park that is well worth visiting, as it includes the Vajdahunyad Castle, the Museum of Agriculture, and a lake where you can go boating. In the winter, the lake becomes a popular ice skating rink. The Vajdahunyad Castle was built in 1896 for the turn-of-the-century celebrations, and represents virtually every style of Hungarian architecture. Whether you visit the castle and museum, or simple stroll through the park, it is a peaceful and interesting place to spend the afternoon. There is also a statue of George Washington in the park, built to thank the Americans for admitting so many Hungarian immigrants in the early 1900s.

Karolyi Garden
Located in Pest, this garden offers a beautiful respite from the surrounding narrow streets and the bustle of the city. It is one of the only green areas in this part of Budapest, and is a popular picnic spot with the locals. There is lots of lush grass and some nice trees, and the park is surrounded by some scenic historic townhouses. No dogs are allowed in the garden, and there is an enclosed playground for children.

Feneketlen to
The name of this park means “bottomless lake” in Hungarian, and does contain a nice lake with rushes and several ducks. Some locals go fishing here, but rarely catch anything. There is also a children’s playground with some very fun rides, a tennis court, and an open-air theatre in the summer months which is a popular venue during summer festivals.
