Traveler reviews
Christian Kaiser
★★★★★4 months agoAn absolutely outstanding playground and one of the most unique we have ever visited. It is incredibly large and has amazing features you do not find everywhere — giant climbing structures, two huge slide towers, a water play area, and a lovely space for smaller kids as well. The soft ground surface adds extra safety, and there are lots of places for parents to sit plus a café nearby. A truly fantastic place for families in Városliget.
