"ℹ️ INSIDER INFO: Based on errearra.org: Did you know that a mountain in Jerusalem (Mount Herzl) was named after Herzl Tivadar? The Austro-Hungarian writer, born in Pest in 1860, in a house on Dohány Street, is buried here, on this hill in Jerusalem, in the National Pantheon. Why Kolodko placed the mini-sculpture in front of the Dohány Street Synagogue? Because app. the house on Dohány Street where Herzl Tivadar was born stood on this spot. And why is Herzl Tivadar standing in front of a bicycle? On the one hand, because this is one of the sections of road that receives the most cyclists in Budapest, and on the other hand, Kolodko found a photograph where Herzl is photographed with his bicycle, and this image served as a model.

Budapest - 2in1 unique sightseeing tour with mini sculptures 🕵🏼🏰

What makes a sightseeing tour fun? Especially when kids are around? Conventional tour buses are okay, but I rather try to find alternative ways to explore a city. For this, I have an amazing idea. 🤩 Budapest has been conquered by mini sculptures made by Mihály Kolodko - a Ukrainian sculptor, who moved to Budapest in 2017. These mini sculptures are mostly made out of metal & after installation, he usually posts only a photo (maybe a hint) on socials, about the location of the new addition. IMAGINE a family approved sightseeing tour in Budapest, where the small child(ren) can play ’treasure hunt’ searching for these art installations, 🕵🏼 while the whole family gets a unique glimpse of Budapest’s city center. Personally, I love unique ideas & for me it would be a perfect alternative approach for a traditional sightseeing tour.
