A quirky little surprise in City Park! The Mini Dracula Statue near Vajdahunyad Castle is one of Budapest’s hidden gems. Created by guerrilla sculptor Mihály Kolodko, this tiny bronze figure depicts Count Dracula reading a book, legs dangling over the edge of a wall. It’s a playful tribute to Béla Lugosi, the Hungarian actor who famously portrayed Dracula in the 1931 film. It’s tucked away in a quiet corner of Városliget (City Park), so you really have to look for it, but that’s part of the fun. Finding it feels like discovering a secret. The statue is small but full of character, and it adds a whimsical touch to the gothic atmosphere of the nearby castle. Would I recommend it? Yes, especially if you enjoy offbeat art and hidden spots. It’s a fun detour while exploring City Park.
