Background

It is accessible by the Szépjuhászné station of the Budapest Children's Railway. It is the site of the Pauline Monastery where the Pauline Order founded their first friary.[1]

It is a starting point for hikers into the Buda Hills. It is very easy to reach the Bátori Cave. Visitors frequent the Károly Kaán Lookout Tower at the top of Nagy-Hárs-hegy and the Imre Makovecz observation tower on Kis-Hárs Hill.[2]
