Overview

This tomb is the northernmost place of pilgrimage for Muslims. Hungary was under Turkish rule for 125 years (they got as far as the gates of Vienna before being beaten back). However, there's not much left of Turkish Budapest and this is probably the only remaining Turkish street. Gul Baba died soon after the capture of the city and did not have time to do very much here, although he is said to have introduced roses.
