Andrássy Avenue was built in 1896 and is often referred to as the “Champs-Élysées of Budapest.” It was constructed to commemorate the Millennium, connecting Heroes’ Square, City Park, and the city center. Since 2002, it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage, along with Heroes’ Square and the Millennium Underground Railway running beneath it.
