A jewel in the Hungarian Sea, the pristine 5 km (3.10 miles) long Tihany peninsula is surrounded by hills and mountains of vineyards and forests. The enchanting island jutting out into Lake Balaton divides the Lake Balaton into two. The renowned Abbey Church is located on the eastern coast of the peninsula. The lovely village of thatched-roof houses Tihany stands on a hill, while lower down fields encircle a private lake. Tihany is also a major sanctuary for birdlife due to its unique climate and the natural setting crisscrossed by numerous footpaths. Some rare animals and plants are found here resulting in the declaration of National park in 1952–the first of its kind in Hungary. Tihany has many attractions such as Tihany Benedictine Abbey, Lake Balaton, Eco Hills, Tihany small caves, and more. Planning a trip to Szekesfehervar?
