Overview

Join me for a raw, unfiltered two-hour deep dive into the Jewish Quarter(Party District) of Budapest. We won't just look at the pretty Street art Murals and Statues—we will examine the harsh realities of the politics, confront the complex history of the Jewish Quarter, and explore the current socio-economic situation, uncovering the stories that others often skip.

- District 7 has a strict rule about street art, hence graffities are not part of the tour, as they usually disappear by next morning. - but there is plenty of beautiful art to show you while walking around :-)

Looking forward to seeing you on my tour! :)

**Please note that due to my changing school schedule, sometimes my lovely colleague Burak will do the tour for me**

FAQ

The tour focuses on mural paintings and 'colorful city' arts. Because District 7 has strict rules regarding street art, graffiti is not included as it often disappears quickly.

The tour meets by the main entrance stairs of St. Steven Bazilika at St. Steven square. You should look for the guide holding a light blue umbrella.
