On this tour we explore the Jewish quarter, the former ghetto, today's flourishing neighborhood. The Jewish quarter has much more to offer than the Dohany street shul, though for sure that is one of the most important part of it. Beside many many other things we talk about Jewish history, Jewish food, Hungarian Jewish specialties and also about what does Mickey mouse have to do with one of the synagogues. I"m sure you have always wondered that. If you are interested, I share my family story too.
We go in chrnological order and visit these sites: We start the tour in the Dohány synagogue, I tell you about Jewish history, the history of the building and we see the whole complex with the Jewish Museum and the Wallenberg Memorial too. From here we continue to the Rumbach synagogue and on the way stop to see some interesting graffities - not exactly the type one thinks about as hears the word graffiti. Also I tell you different personal stories on the way. After visiting the Rumbach we continue walking in the area and stop for a quick but exciting story at the Lutz Memorial and a quick look at the Gozsdu courtyard on the way to the Kazinczy former orthodox shul. After that we pass by a few kosher restaurants on the way to the Elisabethtown Historical Museum, where upon the entrance you'll get to know how Jewish people lived in the different phases of the 20th century. The Golem Jewish Theatre in Hungary is just a step away so we'll stop for a minute and finish the tour here.
