New busó statues welcome you in Mohács

According to Hungarian traditions, the carnival season has always been the time to drive away winter with noisy razzle-dazzle. Every year, thousands of people gather together to watch the spectacular and world-famous Busós marching on the streets of Mohács, Hungary.

To commemorate this traditional celebration, the city of Mohács inaugurated a group of statues in the Pécsi road roundabout. The three busós welcome the cars entering the city with wide arms.
