Overview

Take a walk through the former ghetto, the historical Jewish Quarter of Budapest, visit the largest functioning synagogue of Europe in addition to other monumental ones, witness the everyday life of the still active and lively area with numerous kosher shops, restaurants and monuments representing the events of the past, and honoring the deeds of well-known and nameless heroes. Pickup a tiny bit of information on each corner, and combine it with the general knowledge of Budapest granted to you through the guide, and during the visit to the Jewish Museum.
