Aeropark Budapest
The Aeropark museum is located right next to the Budapest, Liszt Ferenc International Airport, within walking distance from the terminal. This is an open air museum, with several of the airplanes actually being open and accessible to the visitors. This is what sets this museum apart from most others in my opinion.
