Haviz, Lake Balaton, Hungary, Unravel Travel TV

Outside Budapest the capital of Hungary the second biggest tourist attraction is Lake Balaton. During the summer months thousands of holiday makers come here and base themselves in one of the pretty town or resorts along the lake. The lake stretches along for 80 kilometres and it can take between one and two hours drive from Budapest, depending what part of the lake you chose to visit.

Given the great whether many are tempted to cycle around the lake a bicycle track was recently completed allowing cyclists to bike 200 kilometres

Heviz is a town in the north western part of Lake Bolaton is ideal for anyone who wants to get fit and healthy on holiday with its array of hotels and thermal lake. Where ever you travel in Hungary you are never far from a thermal spring behind me is lake bas and its THE LARGEST THERMAL LAKE IN THE WORLD. People come to this lake every day to help cure conditions like arthritis sorrices or else for just pure relaxation. Its busiest day last year saw 8000 people dip their toes in its sulphuric waters

Festetics Palace is located in Kestely near Lake Balaton it was intended as a country house for members of the Festetics family. Its construction, started by Kristóf Festetics in 1745, lasted more than a century, and it has since trippled in size.

The Baroque-style palace now houses the Helikon Castle Museum, it also hosts concerts and events, and is surrounded by beautifully kept grounds. The palace is visited by 200,000 people every year the great book collection that remains in the castle is the only extensive aristocratic library that survives in Hungary. The Palace also boasts an impressive coach- house with coaches of all sizes, shapes and decorated in an array of styles.

@Danny30011980 lol, thermal waters usually smell like that, because of their sulphur content that comes from the deep..

This lake is huge! I had no idea it was so big. Fascinating, and the hot spring lake nearby and the palace look like real tourist attractions.
