Things to do in Budapest for self travelers

This stunning, historical building houses not only the gorgeous, serene worship space, but also a carefully curated and moving exhibition of artifacts attesting to the resilience of the Jewish population of Budapest. With equal parts horror and hope, the reality of an historic, thriving community being torn apart by the Nazis, and then reassembled by people of other faiths painstakingly tracking down survivors and encouraging them to come home was illustrated in photos and artifacts. Well worth the price of admission.
