Our guide, Tom was terrific. He carefully walked us from our hotel through the whole of the Jewish quarter in Budapest, stopping to discuss history of Hungary from Austria-Hungary Empire when Hungary “shown in the limelight” to the wars, both WW1 and WW2 as slowly land was carved away from Hungary making it smaller and smaller. We walked along the streets in the quarter district looking at the various architecture from 1800 period perfect to broken down partially falling apart buildings. He took us to where there still remained parts of the original ghetto wall as well as to the beautiful Orthadox Synagogue where we saw congregants returning from morning prayers. We made our way past broken buildings converted into the new “Bar Scene” of many young people and tourists as well as some Jewish shops still selling Kosher foods. We eventually made our way to the great Synagogue in Moorish design. It is the 2nd largest Synagogue in the world and even more compelling the Holocaust memorial garden displays there. We made our way to his car finally for the last stop at the Enbankment., a riveting sight. Tom was great!
