"The urban buzz is especially strong in downtown Pest’s District VII, home of the now-world-famous "ruin pub" along with offbeat design stores, specialty street food, and modern-art galleries – but this area is also revered as Budapest’s historic Jewish Quarter, featuring Europe’s biggest synagogue." - Hyperakt
"▲▲▲ Finest collection of Jewish sights in Europe, featuring various synagogues and an evocative cemetery." - Rick Steves' Europe
"Between the Old Town Square and the Vltava, the Jewish Quarter contains six synagogues, a Jewish Ceremonial Hall and the Old Jewish Cemetery; Hitler spared the area to turn it into a museum, and today the museums, synagogues and cemetery honor the history of what was once one of Europe’s largest Jewish communities." - Matthew Kepnes
