The Hősök Tere, or Heroes’ Square, at sunset is one of the most iconic and majestic sights of the Budapest, Hungary.
The central point of the square is the Millennium Monument, a tribute to the Hungarian history and identity. The monument consists of a 36-meter high column with Archangel Gabriel on top, surrounded by statues of the seven chieftains of the Magyars and other important Hungarian leaders.
The real magic happens when the sun goes down and the sky turns into a palette of colours. The light reflects on the column and the statues, creating a stunning contrast and a warm glow.
The lamps on the square and the museums also light up, adding to the fairy-tale atmosphere. The square becomes a peaceful and romantic place, where you can enjoy the beauty and the history of Budapest.
The Hősök Tere is not only a visual delight, but also a cultural and historical treasure. The square was built in 1896 to commemorate the thousandth anniversary of the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin and the foundation of the Hungarian state.
It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with the Andrássy Avenue and the City Park.
