Named after the famous poet Mihály Vörösmarty, whose statue it holds, this beautiful square open to the public is a lovely place to spend a lazy afternoon.

Vorosmarty’s grey statue is certainly a sight to see here. It is a beautiful monument that immortalizes this patriotic and romanticist poet.  He was an extremely important figure in Hungarian history so it makes to find out more about him from the locals. But since it is at the northern end of Vaci Utca, the beautiful Café Gerbaud also forms a part of the landscape. This café is reputed for its cakes and pastries so do try one out if you can. The square is certainly great for people watching and will be the perfect place to stroll around on a lazy day. Find a spot to sit in and you are bound to enjoy a great evening or two here.
