Budapest, Óbuda, 24 Mátyás Király Street is calling for a full-on family adventure this Sunday, May 3, 2026. If you’re hunting for a weekend plan where everyone has a blast, the Palace of Wonders (Csodák Palotája) delivers a science-packed playground you can explore all day with one ticket. From preschoolers to teens and competitive parents, it’s a chance to test skills you didn’t even know you had—compete, laugh, and be surprised by what you and your crew can do together.
Hands-on thrills for every age
Anything can happen here, so jump in. Climb into the weird-wheeled car and feel the bumps beneath you. Get lost—and found—in the Mirror Maze. Mix up your faces at the face-morphing station. Shake hands with yourself using just one hand. Hop into a Moon Rover. Snap selfies with the greatest scientists. Multiply into a hundred versions of yourself inside the Giant Kaleidoscope. Stand in the middle of infinity in the Mirror Room. Challenge your logic. Find out who’s the bravest fakir in your group. Walk the clouds with the Flying Reflection. Crank up a swirling vortex. Try air basketball. Then head to live shows on the Öveges Stage, four times daily. And don’t skip the Richter Gedeon Lab—lab coat and goggles on—where you’ll spin up experiments of your own. There’s a lot more to uncover, so plan on three to four carefree hours, or stretch it to an entire day.
