Looking for a weekend plan the whole family will actually love? Head to the Palace of Wonders (Csodák Palotája) in Budapest and dive into a full day of science-fueled play, hands-on experiments, and mind-bending illusions. Open Sunday, December 21, 2025, at 1036 Budapest, Mátyás Király Road (Mátyás Király út) 24, this science experience center packs in enough activities to keep kids from 3 up to teens—and their competitive parents—hooked for hours. Try, test, and surprise yourselves: discover hidden skills, challenge each other, and marvel at what your kids or partner are secretly brilliant at.
What You’ll Do
Anything can happen at Csopa. Climb into a weird-wheeled car—will it rattle under you? Brave the Mirror Labyrinth. Mash up your faces into one. Shake hands with yourself using just one hand. Take a seat in a Moon Rover. Snap selfies with the greatest scientists. Become a crowd of 100 inside the Giant Kaleidoscope. Stand at the center of infinity in the Mirror Room. Flex your logic with puzzles. Find out who’s the bravest fakir among you. Walk the clouds with the Flying Reflection. Crank up a vortex. Shoot some air basketball. And don’t miss the live shows on the Öveges Stage—four times a day. Suit up in a lab coat and safety goggles in the Richter Gedeon Lab and run thrilling experiments. And that’s just the start—there are plenty more wonders waiting.
Come Play Like a Kid
Spend 3–4 carefree hours—or make a day of it. With a Csopa day ticket, you can explore from open to close—no rush, no limits, just pure discovery and play.
