Abstract
For two centuries, the local or national exhibitions provided a certain scene to meet novelties. Among these the one opened in London in 1851 could be counted as the first “world exhibition”. Acolourful exhibition was held in Budapest in 1896 amidst the celebration for the Hungarian Conquest’s Millenial Jubilee. Al-though this monumental display, held in the Városliget (City Park) was like a “world exhibition” in nature, size and attendance, it officially remained a national one due to its originating event. More than 5 million visitors bought tickets for this event, which lasted for half a year, and ended up being highly profitable. Most the visitors were taken to Budapest and then back home by trains – this generated a traffic of 6475772 passengers! The countrymen travelling in groups became acquainted with the new services provided by the railways, visited the monuments and landmarks of the capital city, and personally experienced the advantages and disadvantages of the bourgeois way of life.
