Elza Morcsányi

Urban explorer, walking tour guide and writer

In a lively, anecdote-filled, and direct style, she brings to life the hidden stories, architectural heritage, and human fates of the capital and its surrounding towns. As a tour guide for Imagine Budapest and a writer for cultural magazines, she favours atmosphere and experience-driven storytelling over dry facts. In her popular walking-tour books, published by Athenaeum Kiadó, she brings readers closer to the secrets of Andrássy Avenue, the artistic world of Szentendre, and Budapest Christmases from the "happy peacetime" era.
