SEARCH HELP – IN SEARCH OF THE KEYS
Station 1: The Keeper of the Key to Music 🎷
"The first key is hidden where the heart of the city beats – a tiny musician plays silently for the hurried passersby on the pedestrian street. Look for his instrument, and next to it, the secret box!”
Station 2: The Keeper of the Key of Courage 🛡️
“You’ve proven your courage—now head up to the Castle! Look for the small guard standing quietly by the gate, near the pillar, wearing the uniform of the Crown Guards. You’ll find the second key there!”
Station 3: The Keeper of the Key of Nature 🌿
“Descend to the foot of the castle, into the valley of the Séd Stream. Look for the white stone walls where a princess once prayed among the flowers in the monastery garden. Stand behind the statue of Margit to see where the secret chest with the keys is hidden inside.”
Station 4: The Keeper of the Key of Love ❤️
“Keep going along the stream. Look for the spot where a little girl is sitting on a lion’s back by the footbridge. This is where the key to smiles and love is hidden.”
Station 5: The Keeper of the Queen’s Key 👑
“Here is the final challenge! Climb to the top of the cliffs, from where you can see the entire city. Look for the stone cross where the conquering ancestors rest above the city. You’ll find the chest at the foot of one of the benches.”
