Souvenirs at the Flea Market<br />
Flea Market<br />
Fortunately, EU membership<br />
hasn’t yet led to the demise of<br />
Budapest’s eclectic flea markets,<br />
where anything and everything is<br />
on sale for the right price. The<br />
best market is in the centre of<br />
the city’s largest park, Városliget<br />
(City Park), where you can pick<br />
up anything from Soviet memorabilia<br />
to second-hand records,<br />
ethnic art and crafts, as well as<br />
coins, medals and weapons.<br />
