Where did all the communist tributes to the masters and people of the Soviet Empire go after the wall? Statue Park outside of Budapest, of course. This is a treasure trove of Communism past. You can see all the movers and shakers of a fallen era, including the ubiquitous Stalin and Lenin. Don’t forget to snap a picture of you in a Trabant and visit the gift shop before leaving. I picked up a coffee cup with the immortal and very accurate words:
Wake Up! Drink Coffee! Work for State!
Hip hip horray for oppression
Yippee, Communism is Super!
Raise your hands if you love Communism
Lenin, such a dreamboat
Reach for Big Brothers loving embrace
Statue Park, or Szobor Park
Direct bus line to Memento Park from downtown every day. The bus leaves from Deák Square (Deák tér – Metro N°1,2,3), from the bus stop distinguished by the Memento Park-timetable.
