About Wiki Loves Monuments

Welcome to the local contest of Wiki Loves Monuments in Hungary organized in cooperation between Wikimedia Hungary and the Hungarian National Asset Management Inc. Wiki Loves Monuments began in the Netherlands in 2010 and has since grown to become a global competition in photography. The first year resulted in 12 500 photographs taken whilst in 2011 nearly 170 000 photographs were uploaded setting the Guinness Record for the largest photography competition in the world. The Hungarian contest that year resulted in 5000 image uploads. While Hungary did not participate in the 2012 worldwide contest, it beat its own record by resulting in more than 350 000 photographs uploaded. With your participation Hungary can be part again of the 2013 world record attempt!
