Our journey begins at the central station, near the charming old staircase. Here, you'll delve into the history of this exquisite piece of railway architecture and its connection to the Jewish District, dating back to the early 1900s.

As we meander through the streets, we'll pass by charming local shops and inviting restaurants, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of this historic neighborhood.
