Sensory Garden - Vakok Kertje
About
The nearly one-hectare Sensory Garden was built in the Városliget in 1972, meaning that – after the passing of almost half a century –it was high time to reorganise and modernise the area. While there are many institutions and organisations for the blind and partially sighted who actively use the garden, it no longer met 21st-century requirements for accessibility. However, thanks to the Liget Budapest Project, the Sensory Garden has been completely renewed inside and out: the grounds have been made accessible and furnished with modern amenities, while the plant life has also been rehabilitated and the playground and its special equipment renovated and expanded. The garden is remain enclosed, with the blind and visually impaired guaranteed unrestricted access.
