Four postcard sent outside of Europe

Last week I got lot of addresses outside of Europe. I like to send postcards to remote countries. This birthday card was sent to the USA on 22th January. "Boldog születésnapot!"
HU-53021
To Indonesia I sent a beautiful card with a picture of Alfons Mucha on the same day. I like his painting very much! It is from the series "The Precious Stones"; title is “Rubin”. I will write soon a note about sent and received Mucha cards.

Two days later to a new Chinese postcrosser was sent a card with the entrance of “Móra Ferenc Museum", Szeged. The photo was taken by Béla Duscha, a photographer living in Szeged. I will write a note about his photos too. He makes not simple tourist cards. All his pictures are masterpieces.

There are not a lot of Postcrossers from Arabic countries. This multiview card a sent to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It had a very short travel time: 5 days. There are some important sights of Szeged on it.
1. Rectorate of University of Szeged
2. Dom square with the Roman Catholic Votive Church, the symbol of Szeged
3. Reök Palace, a building in Art Nuevo style for artistic exhibitions
4. Water-slides of "Bath Sunshine"
5. The City Hall
6. The oldest water tower
7. Festival on the bridge over the Tisza River

This card was sent with a new stamp. There is the Synagogue in Baja. Baja is a pleasant small South Hungarian town near the Danube. The Synagogue was built between 1842 and 1845. Jewish people from Baja and the surrounding area were deported during the second World War in May 1944. Only a few of them returned, the chapel wasn't used and the ownerless building’s condition was getting worse. The building was purchased by the city in 1985 and was renovated and remade for the needs of a library.
