Budapestโs newest park inaugurated and now open to the public โ PHOTOS
Budapest opened its brand-new park in the surroundings of the Puskรกs Arรฉna this weekend. The area was previously not accessible to the public and was not utilised well, but now, it has become one of the largest and most modern parks in Budapest.
The previously unused and closed-off areas have now received a new life and transformed into the newest green park in Budapest. The new park, named Puskรกs Arรฉna Park since it is located next to the Puskรกs Stadium, is the latest addition to Budapestโs green parks and has a total area of 100,000 square metres.
The park awaits visitors with fitness and street workout areas, jungle gyms for all ages, a resting hill, and several sports grounds, including basketball and handball courts, as well as football fields, and it has table tennis and teqball tables as well, Metropol writes.

According to the reports, the new green area is not just a modern park, however, as it can now host a multitude of cultural events, such as concerts, and sports fans will be able to view sports broadcasting on jumbotrons, just as it was possible during the 2020 UEFA European Football Championship this Summer.
Balรกzs Fรผrjes, Secretary of State for the Development of Budapest and the Agglomeration of the Capital, said in his Facebook post that
over the ten-year span, the Hungarian government has created or renewed over 1,000,000 square metres of green and public parks.
