Description: The castle and Roman Catholic Chapel together form a historic building complex built in 1896. Situated in the City Park (Városliget), Budapest. It's famous by representing the 1000 years of Hungarian architecture by mixing various styles in itself. The name came from the Castle of Vajdahunyad in Romania, because of copying its main facade. Next to the castle there's the large open-air ice-skate ring, what is a lake for boating during summertime.
Architectural style: Gothic, Romanesque
