Neighborhood Description
A Jewish neighborhood before and during World War II, Erzsébetváros is now a cornucopia of late 20th century architecture. Functional Communist era structures line narrow streets. The Great Synagogue, the second largest in the world, built in Byzantine-Moorish style, stands in gorgeous contrast to the surrounding area. Every day is business as usual; the local proletariat walk in and out of offices, Internet stations buzz, and restaurants serve local favorites. At day's end, the neighborhood redefines itself as a nightlife hub. The hip Liszt tér restaurant and café scene starts pulsing from the north, and in kert (courtyard) bars across the 'hood, bartenders get to work.
