HÉVÍZ<br />
T<br />
he history of Hévíz spa and the<br />
therapeutic effects of the lake<br />
were already known to the Romans,<br />
but the earliest written reference<br />
dates from 1328. The development<br />
and revival of bathing in Hévíz<br />
is linked with the name of Count<br />
György Festetics, who purposefully<br />
built up the bathing resort. Its<br />
popularly has grown so much that<br />
today several hundred thousands of<br />
tourists visit the place every year,<br />
which provides opportunity for<br />
comfortable relaxation not only for<br />
those looking for healing, but for<br />
anyone at all. Besides the baths, visits<br />
to promenades, parks, wine bars,<br />
churches and statue parks can make<br />
a trip here more colourful.<br />
