Balf and Hegykõ are famous fot their thermal baths. Several palaces in Sopron and Vienna have been built with the limestone exctracted  from the quarry of Fertőrákos.  The breath-taking sight of the enormous caves reminds one of the ancient Egyptian rock graves. The opera performances in the quarry as well as the panorama from the hill of the excavations are unforgettable.

Bükfürdõ is famous for the thermal spring. The spring in Bükfürdõ with a water temperature of 50 °C renders 1000 litre of water per minute, and no Central-European thermal spring beats it.

The first Hungarian book, the New Testament, translated by János Sylvester was printed in Sárvár, not far from Bükfürdõ. The Nádasdy palace (Nádasdy-vár) is decorated with frescos from 1653, depicting battle scenes of the Turkish wars. Rare literary relics and weapons are on display in the Ferenc Nádasdy Museum. Miracles of nature open up on 9 hectares of Sárvár Arboretum: trees typical of this region, such as robur, ash and alder trees grow there, japanese magnolia (Magnolia kobus), Pyramid-oaks are also pianted and rhododendrons blossom even in May. The internationally renowned spa has made the town a popular holiday resort.
