Tihany, Municipality with Benedictine abbey on Lake Balaton peninsula, Hungary.
The Tihany peninsula features limestone geysers and supports rare wildlife species across its 27 square kilometers of protected landscape.
The Benedictine Abbey of Tihany, established in 1055 by King András I, contains the first written record of the Hungarian language.
The Foundation Letter of Tihany Abbey represents a significant linguistic milestone as it preserves the earliest documented Hungarian words.
The mini-train service connects the town center, abbey, Rév-Club, and Lavender Center through a 30-minute route covering major attractions.
From Echo Hill, voices reflect seven times within two seconds when directed toward the abbey, particularly during cold winter days.
