Liszt Ferenc tér


In front of the Franz Liszt Academy of Music is Liszt Ferenc tér, that is, Franz Liszt Square. It is a tree filled pedestrian street lined with eateries and coffee shops. In the middle is this statue of Liszt himself in full engagement with his imaginary piano.



The Academy has expanded into several adjacent buildings including this one with a young student getting a violin lesson.


Lots of good food available here.


In front of the Academy itself, is this statue to honor Sir Georg Solti, one of the many notable alumni.


Around the square we also find lots of interesting architecture. This is  a really great place to to have a relaxing day of seeing and eating.


There is even this curious statue of a man having head removed by a skeleton, perhaps signifying death. He certainly seems happy about it all.
