Lake Balaton

Ciao a tutti! Today I'm going to speak about a touristic summer place that is very popular in Eastern Europe  but probably not very well known in general, this place is the Lake Balaton...it is the largest lake in Eastern Europe and it's located in Hungary. Since Hungary (also called Magyarország) doesn't have it's own sea  and coasts, this lake is called "The Hungarian Sea"; almost all Magyars spend their summer holidays at Lake Balaton. Siófok, Keszthely, and Balatonfüred are the major resorts towns. I visited only Siófok, where I spent a very funny week with some friends a couple of years ago....Siófok is also known as the party capital of Lake Balaton and called "The Ibiza of Eastern Europe". It's full of very nice restaurants,cafes and night clubs, so a place where for sure you won't get bored! Not only the nights in Siófok are funny but also there are many things to do during the day...boat trips, sailing, bathing (the water is quite warm) and it's pleasant just sun tanning on the grass of the parks near the lake......in short, it's a place that I really recommend to visit in summer if you're in Hungary....see you soon with another post!
