Hévíz
Hévíz is a modest spa town in western Hungary's Zala County, built around a natural warm-water lake with a peat bed said to be unique in Europe — a distinction that has made it one of Hungary's foremost tourist destinations. The town sits close to Keszthely and the Lake Balaton region, and has a café and restaurant scene that would suit a town twice its size.
