We take a tour at the zoo on the way home from our honeymoon. I was here with my previous boyfriend in 2007 and since then almost everything has changed, but in a good way. We received a map and a program card with feeding times with the ticket and bought 2 portion of zoo food (only for ungulates!). Some parts of the zoo is under constraction, so we couldn't see everything, but it was a really nice trip. One of the kapibaras lay next to the fence so we could pet him/her, but it's a secret ;) The goats and lamas are really unashamed and made a pig of themselfs by tossing each other away. The wildlife part of the zoo is really nice and big, separated into different zones, one is for savannah animals, one is for camels, monkeys and so on and a new thing for me is the dino park. I think it is mostly for the children, it was a big annoying for me to read the given dinosaur was 9 meter long and I could see a 3 meter long something from plastic(?), but it was really realistic.
5. Thermal Lake of Heviz

The lake of Hévíz is the biggest biologically active, natural medicinal water in the world. Its temperature is affected by the combination of cold and hot spring waters coming from underground. The medicinal water breaks out from the spring cave on the surface at the rate of approx. 410 litres per second and with a temperature of 40°C. According to that delivery, the water in the lake changes every three and a half days and keeps uniformly clean.

This place is gorgeous! We loved every second of our time there. For English speakers, it can be a bit confusing so here are my tips: 1. Get there by 10 to ensure a beautiful spot that is right next to the water. 2. Go the right as you enter because that is where it is less crowded and where the jacuzzis are 3. Bring snacks if you are there a long time, though they do have a lovely restaurant 4. Bring your own floatie or rent one for 1000ft deposit 600ft fee 5. Add the “wellness” package. It’s the jacuzzis and saunas and you won’t want to miss those. 6. Stay at least four hours! 7. Bring your own towel 8. ENJOY!!!

This Promanade is just simply blissful, in the heart of Balatonfured, right on the lake, surrounded by beautifully manicured parks and amazing flower arrangements everywhere you look. Such a relaxing place I visit it every day when I'm there.
