Tungsram strand, Public swimming facility in Újpest, Hungary

The Tungsram strand features three main pools, including a regulation-size competition pool, public pool, and children's pool across its 30,000 square meters.

Established in 1938 with an international swimming competition and water polo match, the facility operated continuously for 67 years until its closure in 2005.

The strand served as a training ground for Hungarian water polo teams and provided recreational opportunities for local residents and Tungsram company employees.

The facility maintained constant warm water temperatures through a groundwater heating system and included storage space for approximately 200 boats.

Located at the convergence of the Vác and Szentendre branches of the Danube River, where the riverbed narrows to 600 meters.
