Népliget (approximate translation: "People's Park") is located in Budapest, Hungary. It is a central bus station for coaches. In front of the bus station, there is a large, open field which is practically called the Népliget, but Hungarians tend to use Népliget in relation with the bus centre.
Beside the coach station and the park itself, Népliget is also noted for the Planetarium.
The 3rd Metro line (North-South line) in Budapest has a stop there. The tram #1-#1A have three stops along the north-western border of the Népliget.
Népliget park also was the location of the motorcycle, and car races between 1936 and 1972.

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or park:
“Kindness is not without its rocks ahead. People are apt to put it down to an easy temper and seldom recognize it as the secret striving of a generous nature; whilst, on the other hand, the ill-natured get credit for all the evil they refrain from.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“Borrow a child and get on welfare.
Borrow a child and stay in the house all day with the child,
or go to the public park with the child, and take the child
to the welfare office and cry and say your man left you and
be humble and wear your dress and your smile, and don’t talk
back ...”
—Susan Griffin (b. 1943)
