The urban buzz is especially strong in downtown Pest’s District VII, home of the now-world-famous "ruin pub" along with offbeat design stores, specialty street food, and modern-art galleries – but this area is also revered as Budapest’s historic Jewish Quarter, featuring Europe’s biggest synagogue.
From humble beginnings as an abandoned building that a few artistic friends turned into a creative bar, Fogas Ház is now one of Budapest’s best party venues, with crowds often spilling out onto the street on weekend nights. With its huge interior and a tree-lined courtyard, this ruin pub also hosts frequent cultural events like exhibits and film screenings, while the acclaimed Berlin-style techno club Lärm is hidden in plain sight upstairs.
