One of the most famous sights is the House of the Nation, or Hungarian Parliament building, the third largest parliament building in the world.
Christmas Markets of various sizes make Budapest also a great choice to visit around mid-November and close to the end of December.

Lake Balaton

When relaxing at a resort becomes more appealing to you than walking another cobblestone street to see another medieval building, head to Lake Balaton. 

Siofok is the lake’s party capital, while ferries at Fonyod take passengers to Badacsony, a major wine-growing region. The north shore offers more wineries, the historical bathing town of Balatonfured, or Keszthely with the baroque Festetics Castle.

Tihany

A must-visit landmark in the town itself is the beautiful 17th-century Benedictine Abbey with its spectacular views of the lake and the surrounding area, a particular treat in spring when the region’s almond trees are in bloom, and again in the summer when the fields are a sea of deep-blue lavender.

What is more, the “Sound of Music” film was shot in Salzburg and surrounding areas, so many visitors are eager to do the tour of the same
name.

Poland has a surface area of 312 679 km², which is more than Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia combined, so the only way to write about such a huge country is to skip the descriptions of many important places and only mention cities that are as old as Prague or as big as Vienna. To mention only famous European mountain ranges and miss again whole areas, as big as Hungary, with picturesque villages and the countryside full of lakes, rivers and natural beauty.
