Gellért Hill, Budapest


Our Foundation has been taking care of the Garden of Philosophy since it was placed and unveiled. The philosophers are paying attention to each other in the sunset. The group of statues has been visited in ever growing numbers by foreign guests and many of them are writing interesting entries to their blogs.
