- 5 Sep 2012 9:00 AM
- shopping
Sunday morning Lydia and I explored the newish Szimplakert Haztaji Piac (open Sunday 9-14, Kazinczy u. 14, VII ker). I cannot stand the crowds at night at Szimpla, so I tend to avoid it.

In 1908 a municipal decision was made to replace several obsolete gas factories with a single new facility.
