Heroes’ Square
At the end of Budapest’s grandest boulevard, Andrassy ut, are two of its nicest museums in Budapest (or so I've been told as I did not have time to visit them) and Heroes' Square. In the center of this square stands the 120-foot bronze Millennium Monument, begun in 1896 to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of the Magyar Conquest. Statues of the founders of the Magyar nation occupy the base of the monument, while Hungary’s greatest rulers and princes stand between the columns on either side.
