Hungary- Budapest - Day 5

23-07-2011

Last day in Budapest.

Morning in the Jewish quarters. The Dohany synagogue which is the biggest in Europe is really pretty. Due to it being Saturday we could not the interiors but were able to see the Holocaust memorial, the weeping willow, in the courtyard. Along the walk in the area we saw three other lovely synagogues and the Carl Lutz memorial ( would have easily missed it had we not been looking for it ). The market hall in the area was small,dingy and full of junk, hated it.

Was not really sure that I wanted to visit another market hall but glad I did as the next one was fun. It was large,different levels had fruit, fish and clothes. One corner had a food court where we had langos once again. The best were the ones with garlic, that is how we saw the locals have it .

Back to the hotel where we spent a few hours watching the news of the horrifying shooting in Norway.
