These temples are works of art. I am happy to see that they survived the world wars and have been restored to their greatness.

Thank you so much for the historic facts. Had no idea so many died of "Hunger!" and not even that there was such a large Jewish community lived in Budapest. The Synagogue is absolutely beautiful, but not overdone.

I hope to return and visit. The history of the synagogue is fascinating -- used as a stable by the Nazis! Also, it's interesting that renovation after WWII was put on hold through the Communist era. And some places are still not updated.

To see the Tree Of Life and the brass cobblestones, knowing what they represent must be quite sobering. Thank goodness for brave people like Carl Lutz and Oskar Schindler who put the lives of others before themselves.<br /><br />xxDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933494199087059715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5000805115000681447.post-73486336180717912502019-09-12T17:05:01.505+03:002019-09-12T17:05:01.505+03:00I loved Budapest.
