First Boulevard



According to the town's coffee table book, the first boulevard was commissioned in 1903 after the existence of Rákócszi Street (Rákócszi Út).

In those days, writer Zigmond Móricz commented : "This is the most beautiful street in the whole country."

This boulevard lost its importance as time goes by; the good news is, it has been renewed and finished work in 2012. People of the town and tourists alike could start to appreciate the beautiful architecture in the new light again.

Ready to be useful again?



Some old tiles found nicely stacked behind the Calvinist Church.
Is it a sign that the tiles will be reuse again? Am not sure,
but every time I passed this way, the colours always catch my attention.

Girly Cafe

2012-12-22 11.29.54
Entering the Mini Kávézó makes you forget that it is cold and gray outside.
As this is quite new and our first time here, I was taking in the decor.
as you see, it is more of girls' cafe!
Overall experience : Ate a nice piece of apple cream cake & reasonably good milked coffee.

Looking over the square


In my archive I found this photo yet to be posted, perhaps due to lack of info. on this figure found at the top of the town halll building. I believe this is the highest point of the building; directly above the bells which ring through out the day.

Update :-
The figure is called Árpad Vezér. More info could be found at the link http://www.kozterkep.hu/~/6694/#

Mental Note :- I shall remember to record an audio and share with you here.

Even more majestic

I have posted on this synagogue many times before, but not from this angle.

You can learn some background stories of this structure from my posts Post WWII Synagogue and  Night of the Museums

New and charming

That cottage style house is quite charming ; however, it is just odd to see it in this setting, next to a block of modern housing.
