Built in the first half of the nineteenth century, the largest cathedral in Hungary incorporates the red marble Rakocz Chapel, a fine example of Renaissance art.
The basilica is an architectural masterpiece. Built in the early nineteenth century, it incorporates the Bakócz Chapel, built by Italian masters between 1506–1507 out of red marble from Süttő. The crypt contains a most moving memorial to Cardinal József Mindszenty. An amusing note: different tickets need to be purchased to visit the various areas of the basilica. Accordingly, there are ticket checkers stationed all over the huge building to ensure that visitors have paid appropriately. The panorama coffee bar is situated halfway up the staircase to the gigantic dome. That part of the spiral staircase is "sealed," in the sense that there are no entrances into the spiral staircase other than at the bottom. Nevertheless, my ticket with first checked at the bottom, and then again when I reached the panorama level, despite the fact that there was no way I could possibly have climbed to the panorama level without passing the ticket checker at the bottom!

A charming district intersected by winding medieval streets and filled with quaint houses and grand palaces, shops, restaurants and a variety of interesting museums.
Beautiful view on the city. It worth to come here. You can see nearly the whole city. There are beautiful buildings: churches and tatuary.

The original abbey was established by King Andras I in the 11th century.
Driving along the lake Balaton we saw the brown road sign " Tihany ". With zero info, we drove up to find an interesting village which happened to be a touristic one to our surprised. Parking seemed not easy to find and finally we found one along the village main road. It was a pay parking. We went up following the direction to a baroque Abbey Church. Wow what an idyllic setting. Calendar-inspired views. One can make a pleasant walk in a well-paved pathways. In the Visitor Center, one can buy a ticket for a guided tour + a short film about the Abbey. I recommend this. Friar Richard guided us. A group of tourist had an spontaneous " choir concert ". Around the Abbey is a Guest House that opens whole year round. There is a pastry shop where you can have breakfast or hot meals. It has a terrace overlooking the placid, serene Balaton Lake. Beautiful. When in Balaton Lake, come to this village and be filled with spirituality too. Had a short stay but very meaningful. The Peace of God !
