The new handball arena was planned to be built for the 2022 European Men’s Handball Championship to be hosted by Hungary and Slovakia together. The oval shape of the building can be clearly seen on the drone recordings. According to the government, Budapest will benefit from the new green spaces, but satellite images show otherwise: most of the trees on the plot have been cleared. In reality, people of the capital get parking lots and concrete. The price of the gigantic facility is 225 million EUR (78.7 billion HUF) net.
