Let’s remember – for example – Árpád Élő, the Hungarian born US professor of physics and chess master, the inventory of the point system named after him, which allows the evaluation of a chess player’s playing strength, a member of the World Chess Hall of Fame.
„World Chess Hall of Fame was founded in 1984 on the idea of Steven Doyle, then president of the American Chess Association. It opened in 1986 in New Windsor, New York. Its location has changed several times: from New Windsor first to Washington, then to Miami, and finally in 2011 to its current location in Saint Louis, Missouri.
In 1986, only the U.S. Chess Hall of Fame was established and owned a small museum. The museum featured some Russian chess books signed by Bobby Fischer, a silver chess set by Paul Morphy, and plaques depicting the great masters of recent times.
The museum moved to Washington in 1992, where the American Chess Association took over its management. Exhibits included a trophy won by the American Chess Team at the 1933 Chess Olympics, as well as several special chess tables and chess sets. In the museum, visitors had the opportunity to play against a chess computer. By 2001, the collection had expanded to include panels made up of members of the hall.
In 2001, the museum moved to Miami and was visited as the World Chess Hall of Fame and the Sidney Samole Museum. His exhibits have been significantly expanded with collections, books, memorabilia from major international competitions, photographs, medals, trophies and newspapers.
It has been located in its current location since 2011. In addition to the permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions showcase old and new members of the Hall of Fame, notable events in chess history, tournaments, famous games, and the rich cultural history of chess. The first commercially available chess computer can already be seen as an exhibit there.
Since 2011, art performances have been held several times a year, focusing on the interaction between chess and the arts.”(souce -Wikipedia)

Royal Castle of Gödöllő – Courtyard
Saturday, July 11 and Sunday, 12. 2021.
8 p.m.
Media representatives were invited during the afternoon hours the Gödöllő … (The Royal Palace of Gödöllő or Grassalkovich Castle is an imperial and royal Hungarian palace located in the municipality of Gödöllő in Pest county, central Hungary. It is famous for being a favourite place of Queen Elisabeth of Hungary.)… to view parts of the forthcoming operett with beautiful melodies, witty poems and well-represented characters.
The play is in Hungarian language, yet can easy follow the happenings with the brief contents below:
In brief … Jenő Huszka’s operett is a real piece, strengthening national emotions, imbued with humor and love, about Count Gyula Andrássy,the later Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and Queen Elizabeth (Sisi)‘s unfulfilled, historically unproven love.
Queen Elizabeth loved the Hungarians, and the people saw her savior in her as well. Zsófia Sisi’s opposition to Princess and her desire for freedom sympathized with the feelings of the Hungarians. At the same time she brought with her disapproval of the Austrian court.
Count Gyula Andrássy trying to find a way out for the Hungarians from the frustrating situation threatening an armed revolution. The man’s fierce admiration and hot love finds reciprocity on the part of the Empress, but their desires are hampered by politics, and their love cannot be fulfilled more than an intimate kiss. Their relationship, as well as Sisi’s love for Hungarians, none-the-less promotes the Compromise. In the operetta can also learn about the story of the encounter between an Austrian man who loves Hungarian culture and mentality and a Burgenland girl looking for a husband, as well as the fulfillment of Queen Elizabeth’s courtesy and the childhood love of a Hungarian revolutionary.

The time has finally come into opening up brand new MONYO craft beer industry.
District X., 148. Gyömrői út (Rd.) – Budapest
Take part in a free word-of-mouth advertising MONYO!
MONYO Land, Budapest’s newest summer outdoor entertainment venue for 1,500 people, in the garden of the dynamically developing MONYO Brewing Co. small-scale brewery.
One of the most modern breweries in Europe is being built there, which, in addition to multiplying MONYO’s previous cooking capacity, occasionally opens its doors to the general public. As part of the guided tours, visitors can also get to know the taste of MONYO Land, which will provide people with not only quality beers but also quality entertainment. So far, they have had a great relationship with the domestic bands, as they have already brewed beer together with Quimby or Ivan & The Parazol. These Band Beer labels are not so surprising since there are already famous bands abroad, e.g. Metalika … etc. Made beer with their band names.
In the wine industry the customer expectations in terms of flavor profiles and quality is very high, and that’s the same in the beer industry as well.
There’s a rejuvenation of beer flavours and a moving away from the standard lager-style beers and into a lot of other styles of beers. People aren’t just interested in the same old brews anymore, they’re looking for complex and unique flavors.
The real make or break of an entire tasting relies heavily on your “beertender.” You want someone knowledgeable about their beers and the industry as a whole who has a friendly and social personality. A great conversation with a beertender will create a positive experience and many lifelong customers.
The limited-edition brews having on tap will bring guests and one of the best parts of visiting a new brewery is a tasting, where they can sample everything MONYO have to offer. Thereafter, let them bring that part of the experience back to their home. On the spot special growlers or mixed-packs they can take their favorites to share with friends and family. This lets them share their tasting experience with others.
Did your friends have said it to you? Have you said it to yourself? Maybe random strangers at parties who nicked a bottle of Monyo homebrew have said it to you too? … those magic words: “MONYO beer is awesome” … Find out yourself now is the time to have that special experience at the Monyo Land brewery.
The first question you need to ask yourself is not the obvious one. If you are reading this with intent there is no need to ask yourself if you love craft beer? Of course you do and you need to ask yourself if you love the craft beer industry. Which is an entirely different kettle of hops.
MONYO Land on the venue preparing a 50-day concert program for Budapest’s entertaining audience during the summer season, focusing primarily on Friday and Saturday evenings.
In the meantime, before the concerts, the visitors can take part in an exciting main tour, and then take it to one of the most modern kraft breweries in Hungary for consumption and takeaway from the most exciting world of taste there. There are basically things in guests ’glasses that are elsewhere for fullextra: each of the draft craft beers is MONYO’s original own recipe, with the usual extravagant flavors, some of which are presented here for the first time. The gastro-bar is also high in the field of food: our co-operating partner is the team of Tuning Burger, who is like-minded and similarly maximalist with them, who not only know everything about meatballs, but also take the word hospitality seriously! Of course, all the other elements of the offer – soft drinks and other spirits – have also been selected beyond the now mandatory quality so that everyone can find something one-of-their-kind.
