Stay out on Kossuth tér — no ticket, no stepping inside. Facing the Parliament, find the giant bronze horseman rearing high on the tallest granite pedestal on the square: a warrior-prince who once led Hungary's fight for independence. Carved into that pedestal is his old Latin battle-motto. Read the final word of that motto and report it exactly as the stone spells it.

No ticket needed — stand in the forecourt facing the main entrance and look up. Carved in Latin across the stone above the great central doors runs a single line of scripture. Read only its opening word and report that first word.

At the square's centre a poet sits carved in white Carrara marble. Engraved on his monument is the opening line of the national poem Szózat, whose fourth and final word calls out to one whole people. Read that last word.

Skip the ticketed concert hall and walk to the promenade railing by the tram tracks. A little bronze girl perches there watching the river. What pointed, jester-like headpiece sits on her head?

Carved stone lions guard this bridge — a pair crouches at each end, watching everyone cross. (Legend says the sculptor left off their tongues; he didn't — they're just hard to spot from below.) Count every lion: how many in all?
