There is a first time for everything – and today was my first ‘ruin pub’ experience in Budapest, and also my first visit to the magnificently beautiful cinema here!
The day started with me going off exploring… OK, so I wasn’t able to go far, but one doesn’t need to here. There are cool venues, oddities, sculptures, almost everywhere one looks…
…and THIS, my friends, is a ‘ruin pub’…
What is a ruin pub/bar?
Once the site of the Nazi Jewish ghetto, the historic Jewish Quarter of Budapest became dilapidated after WWII. Even as recently as the early 2000’s, there were still a number of abandoned buildings scattered through the district – when some enterprising people decided they would make excellent sites for bars and pubs!
…and here is where I am sooooo happy I have begin experimenting with 360-degree photos! Here is what it looks like as a flat image…
…and this is your chance to kinda-sorta see what I saw [just use your mouse/fingers to move around the 360-degree space]
Brunch of champions…
…and then off to find the cinema… and just wait until you see the cinema!!! Oh – my – goodness!!!
