Eiffel Bazár Budapest

Treasures of the Past

Eszter from Budapest

Experiencing a place's atmosphere for the first time, when many details feel heightened, is something I can't get tired of. Some spots trigger this feeling every time I step in. I enjoy taking people along to these little bubbles and seeing what they bring to them and take away. I moved to Budapest for my studies and have since earned a Master’s in Cultural Diplomacy. Now, I’m diving ...
"Visit Eiffel Bazar if you’re hunting for a quirky souvenir or simply love rummaging through history. And don't forget to check the box of old cinema posters!"

Eiffel Bazár has its own enchanting little world. It's a real goldmine for those appreciating vintage or unusual objects. The shop is slightly chaotic, a bit like a living museum. Every corner is packed with items from different times: used books, board games, antique and retro objects, surprising relics from the Soviet era and curious household treasures, as well as things from more recent years, be it small furniture, cameras, postcards, records or faded magazines.

I enjoy coming here, looking around, and imagining that each of these objects once had a function, regardless of how distant it seems today, taken out of context. Although I usually prefer going to outdoor flea markets for cheaper finds, one thing that brings me back is their box of old movie posters from long-gone cinemas. Everything in that box is very cheap, and sometimes you can find really beautiful and unique ones.

So if you could use a little time-travel through mixed Hungarian eras, you know where to go!

I’m also a keen seeker of arts and live pe...

Marxim Pub

Ιn the style of socialism

"Marxim Pub" in Budapest is a sort of ironic place about Hungary's socialist history. I like its heavy symbolism. They also make their own beer & pizza!

Pizza at the Railway Station

An obligatory stop

The Pizza at Budapest's Keleti Pályaudva Railway Station, next to platform nine,, is not the very best, but I always grab a filling slice when I'm around.
