• Budapest Retro Interactive Museum is a Definite Must for the Visitor to Budapest

  This is a great museum to visit while in Budapest as it has many displays (interactive too) of how life was like during much of the twentieth century. One will experience via photos, video and audio presentations and artifacts the life and times that people in Hungary lived during this time. There is also a recreation of a television studio and typical apartment that one will see. One must also cite the creative way many of the displays are created -- pertinent objects are exhibited in displays that are reminiscent of the large, gray apartment housing built during the communist era. Much to see and highly recommended.

  My take away from my visit to this museum was : for those growing up in the east, it's a trip down memory lane. For those growing up in the west, it's a shock that our friends in the east were sitting on cozy sofas, watching colour TV, just with different propaganda, and regime.

  

• Walk into the 50's to 80's

  Very retro feeling. Like walking back in time. So many memories if you are old enough. If not, fun to see what your older family members experienced. Multiple languages. Very interactive.

• Great collection of items

  Some really interesting bits here all diaplayed nicely with some interactive parts. The toys and food were fun to see, imagine a local will appreciate more but if a tourist it will keep you busy on a rainy day

  One of our favourite museums EVER! It is extremely cleverly designed and full of ha-ha as it recreated everything from soviet era phone booths to bathrooms. It was interactive allowing us to sit in Lada police cars, direct rockets from a communist space control centre and read the news from a 1960’s era tv station. We had a hoot!!!

  

• Old stuff our parents and grandparents experienced- cool

  Very nice museum, hundreds of objects, videos, cars, reconstructions of living rooms of the time. Lockers to open to discover objects from the past. Unfortunately we arrived from the opening in the morning. Between 2 very noisy groups, difficult to circulate or hear the animations. A little small to accommodate so many people at once. And then after the GDR museum in Berlin, it's hard to give an opinion.

  This is a lovely little museum but I think that people who have lived during the soviet times would get more out of it. As tourists I felt it was costly for the amount of time actually spent in the museum.
