King Matthias' Hunting Fountain in Budapest
About
The "Matthias King's Hunt" fountain is made of bronze and is considered a classic example of monumental architecture in Budapest. The multifigure composition adorns one side of the Royal Palace, which is popular among tourists and local residents of the capital.
At the center of the fountain stands the figure of King Matthias, who is considered the most significant ruler of Hungary, having done more for the country than all his predecessors and successors combined. Flanking the king are statues of a girl and a forester. City visitors often toss coins into the "Matthias King's Hunt" fountain, hoping to return here again.

Muy interesante, una fuente bien cuidada.

Great fountain. One of the most beautiful I've ever seen. Everything is done very beautifully; you should definitely stop by and admire it. You won't regret it.
