The cabinet has reached a decision on the first stage of the Liget project, which will see a series of new museums built on the edge of Budapest’s City Park, János Lázár announced yesterday. He said ideas will be invited for redesigning the park and that some buildings will be restored and new ones built. The park’s Vajdahunyad Castle, home to the Agriculture Museum, will be restored completely.

Another Ft 25 billion is laid aside for the renovation of the zoo, and a new House of Hungarian Music will be built in the middle of the park.
