Located in East Central Europe, Hungary is not the top travel destination for most European vacationers, but it does offer plenty to see. Here are some interesting facts about Hungary:
1. It has the largest lake in Central Europe. Lake Balaton is approximately 50 miles long, covers about 230 square miles, and is known colloquially as the Hungarian Sea. It is a popular vacation destination for Hungarians, with the southern shore famous for its parties and the northern side best-known for its family-friendly atmosphere.
2. Swimming is a national pastime. Hungary has more than 1,000 natural hot springs, as well as the world’s largest thermal lake. So it comes as no surprise that the country features scores of thermal bathing complexes.
3. Sports are very popular. Hungarians love sports, and are proud that Hungary is among those countries with the highest number of Olympic medals per capita. The most popular sports include fencing, swimming, gymnastics, kayaking, and water polo.
