[Leica] IMG: Lake Balaton

[Peter Dzwig]

I'd heard of it before, from friends but had never seen pictures. It 
looks beautiful. Thanks for sharing - and the exhibition, too: I liked 
his painting "Going Home", not too sure about the rest. Is the synagogue 
still in use?

These days we tend to forget how important and cultured Hungary was in 
its heyday.

Today it remains a popular destination for Hungarians (Hungary is landlocked, so the beaches around the lake’s 197 km coastline and those along the Danube river are the only beaches there) and for other Europeans.

I was there for work, but of course there was enough free time in the morning, and on the last day, to explore the area. As usual when I travel, I also visited a nice art exhibition, featuring work by local painter József Egry with whose work I was not familiar, but I liked it very much. The resulting gallery can be seen here:
