Jewish Synagogue and Museum an emotional roller coaster
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/13/04
The Synagogue and Jewish Museum of Budapest will mean different things to different people. You may wish to visit here for the architecture and history, this alone would be well worth the admission. But for many ( myself included ) it's an emotional roller coaster filled with joy, memories, pain, and in 1944-tragidy. Regardless of your ...

Simply gorgeous
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 08/25/05
The architecture on this landmark is stunning. Though it does not need to be your main stop in the day, do at least go to marvel at the exterior. Gorgeous.

#1 undiscovered tourist attraction in Budapest
By Anna B, 04/11/06
The synogogue, I believe, is the largest in Europe, and it's the most beautiful one I've seen yet. Fortunately, not too many travelers visit it, so it's not touristy in the least bit. Admission is free, although there might be a charge to get into the adjacent museum.

Great Synagogue
By sladejhill, 01/27/08
I have never been to a synagogue before and this was quite a humbling experience knowing all that went on during World War II in Hungary and the surrounding areas. I would recommend you to go just if you want to see a part of history.

The beauty and appointments of the inside of the restored synagogue are fabulous. The ...
