Lake Balaton in Hungary is the largest lake in Central Europe, located about 90 kilometers southwest of Budapest. Lake Balaton has become a world-famous Hungarian tourist destination for its attractive lake and mountain scenery. The Tihany Peninsula on the north bank extends deep into the center of the lake and is a beautiful place on Lake Balaton. From the top of the peninsula, you can see the whole lake area. The entire peninsula is a historical and cultural district. There are wildlife reserves on the Tihany Peninsula. The roads on the peninsula are rugged, the ancient trees are towering, and the scenery is quiet and beautiful. At the southern tip of the peninsula, there is a small town called Tihany, which is an excellent place to experience the style of Balaton. The cliffs formed by wind erosion, the monastery built on the volcanic rock, the monastery where the monks lived in the 11th century, the almond trees on the Chuchi Mountain, and the lavender in the mountains and plains form the scenery here. On the heights of the town, stands a Baroque Benedictine monastery built in 1055 - Benedictine Abbey. This white twin-tower building is the symbol of the Tihany Peninsula. It is said that in the crypt of the monastery, King Andrew I of Hungary, who died in 1060, is also buried. On the north side of the monastery, there is a bronze statue of a beautiful girl riding a horse. She is widely known as the Empress of Austria, and later Princess Sissi of Hungary. Princess Sissi loves Hungary and lives in Hungary. Of course, she often goes to Lake Balaton and Tihany Peninsula for vacation and recuperation. The most interesting thing on the peninsula is the "chili house". On the Tihany Peninsula, small-town residents are also inseparable from peppers. However, the peppers here are also used for a purpose, that is, they are hung on the white walls of the Hungarian houses covered with thick grass thatch, becoming a practical and unique scenery. Residents near the small town of Tihany also grow lavender, and the blue lavender fields on the hillside constitute another seasonal landscape.
On the island of Emperor hao, passing a toy store, is selling all kinds of dolls, the most appreciated is that the store owner is not putting the dolls in the store, but placing them in their cabins everywhere, from a distance, it is like a fantasy doll home. These dolls from the details, the workmanship is also very delicate, each doll is different, different appearances, expression prominent, very cute.

Like in the soft halo of a dream, close your eyes and listen to the gentle voice that gently calls me. The late autumn Balaton Lake Tihani town is as beautiful as a fairy tale.
Europe's largest lake~~ Lake Balaton, milk green. Hungary's mountain and water town~~ Tihani is so beautiful. Everyone has the opportunity to come to Herend, Tihany, Lake Balaton This line is less than 2 hours' drive from Budapest.
The Balaton Lake District in Hungary is the largest lake in central Europe, also known as the Hungarian Sea. The Tihani Peninsula is on its north shore. The town is picturesque. Unfortunately, we can only move freely for an hour with the group. We have no time to visit the small shop to buy things. Lavender is produced here. But I didn't see a large lavender field, and it was not bad to take a small fresh photo. There is a Benidictine monastery on it. The three-course Western food of salmon eaten here at noon is also ok, and there is a Hungarian speciality potato beef soup.
If you come to Hungary for a deep tour, this is one of the most worthwhile small towns. The best place overlooking Lake Balaton is breathtakingly beautiful and it is hard to imagine a freshwater lake with such color
All the way from Geneva, Evian, Lausanne, Prague, Budapest, although still missed the lavender flowering period, but Tihani is still the biggest surprise, see more beautiful and magnificent buildings, still the favorite is in the mountains and rivers, see the years are quiet, the world is quiet!
