Jozsef Attila emlekmu

Reviewed By ltibor58 - Pecs, Hungary

Balatonszárszón A Balaton-parton egy szép parkban van elhelyezve József Attila tragikusan elhunyt költőnk emlékműve.
Kicsit meghökkentő, már kiemelkedő méretével is.
Az alkotók jól kifejezték a hányatott sorsú költő nem mindennapi életét és halálát.
Versei az emlékművön olvashatók.
Látogatásunkkor többen kifejezték értetlenségüket az emlékművel kapcsolatban.
Ha van időnk a pár percre található József Attila emlékházat, múzeumot mindenképp nézzük meg!
A költő teljes életútját megismerve már más szemmel nézzük és megértjük az emlékmű mondanivalóját.
Az emlékmű megnézését mindenkinek ajánlom, főleg diákoknak, akik tanultak a költőről.

Benedictine Abbey and Museum (Bences Apatsag)

The original abbey was established by King Andras I in the 11th century.

Reviewed By Chris D - New Westminster, Canada

No, this is not "just another church". The size, architecture, and quality statues in this small village in this out-of-the way place are truly awesome. A guided tour to help understand all the nuances and history are in order - I don't believe I can do it justice with mere words. Do make the effort, even if it is a bit out of your way.

The Baroque-style stable built in the courtyard of the Hunyady estate at Balatonszemes in the last quarter of the 18th century has been housing the Exhibitions of the Post Museum since 1962. The new permanent exhibition accommodated in the former stable building entitled "From the stage-coach to the mail van" presents some fine exhibits of the vehicle collection of the Post Museum.

Tagore Promenade

Reviewed By 188petere - Brisbane, Australia

As we drove from Budapest to Slovenia, decided to take a detour to see the lake & so happy we did as it is beautiful. The colour is lovely, and it is large allowing for a lot of activities slong the shore & by boat.
Numerous accommodation spots along the coast from camping to hotels, various food options from takeaway to dine in, & hire options including boats & bikes.
A popular holiday & cycling option. Lovely! We could easily go back & spend a few days relaxing.

Kalandpark Zamardi

Reviewed By Judit E - Budapest, Hungary

Recommended for all ages, this entertainment options, ranging from 5 years of age. Long tracks of varying difficulty degrees. The team is usually helpful, but there were a few half-hearted fellow as well. Team training is also suitable. I think it is a bit too overpriced, poor value for money price. Restaurant also weak.

We was at Palinka Wellness for tasting and the owner advise to us the look-out tower. Its a short trip (but not only 300m) from parking place to the top and there is a nice view to the Balaton. Worth to visit, mainly if you were on a tasting to clear your head. There is a bufet open during the weekends.

Tihany Echo

Reviewed By Zsolt C

In Hungary if someone would like to visit the Balaton lake, the most representative place with the greatest view is Tihany. Basically the little town is on a half island inside the Balaton, this ensures its extraordinary perspective. If you climb up even to the benedictine monastery "Tihany Abbey", that is guaranteed you will always remember to the Balaton from that view. It is worth to try also the "Tihany echo", which is generated by the north side of the huge building of abbey
