➤ 10 am: Maternity/Baby-mommy and/or daddy walk
We will invite parents with small babies to our unusual themed walk, in a more informal way. By informal, we mean that the rhythm of the walk and the stops are adapted to the needs of the participants, that is, it is possible to stop at any time during the walk, to feed a baby at the resting places, and the crying of a child is not considered a disturbing factor among those applying for the walk. We hope that not only the beautiful environment, but also the cultural and historical experiences during the walk will be a source of refreshment for new moms and dads.

➤ 11 am: Pest-Kolozsvár walk
"Beautiful city of Cluj Napoca". During our walk, we will reminisce about the capital of Transylvania, visiting the graves of people whose lives were marked by Cluj-Napoca: either because they were born as a native of this treasured city, or because their time in the city was a turning point in their career or at a certain stage of their lives. We can find out what Ferenc Erkel and Zsigmond Móricz owed to the famous city, as well as whose works have markedly defined Cluj-Napoca's built and intellectual heritage, as with János Fadrusz’s emblematic statue of Matthias, or the first permanent Hungarian-language theatre, with artists such as Mari Jászai and Márton Lendvay.
