Chinese Market in Budapest

Hi there, back in a day, couple years ago, once i was in Budapest with my dads friend. And he took me to this market on "Józsefvárosi Piac". I am planning a trip with my GF now to Budapest, and I would like to visit them, for fun. But all over internet I keep finding missleading informations. I found that they closed the market in 2017, but also i keep finding reviews that are not that much old. So my question is, is the market really closed ? Or did they found another place where to transfer that whole stuff ? I remember it used to be realy huge with bunch of interesting stuff. I would be realy thankful for any answers. :)

Yeah, they moved to the other side into the large buildings. The vendors mainly just sell cheap knockoff clothes, household goods and other everyday items but that was true for the old market as well.
I think the 'Chinatown' area around Jegenye utca/Monori Center is much more fun. In the summer they have a food market from 5pm with various restaurants out, it's already open and will stay that was until early September. Dunapanda is the biggest Chinese supermarket of the country with a great selection and Jegenye street if full of authentic Chinese eateries as well. I had a great time at Tan Mu Xiang a few weeks ago.
