The Festetics Mansion, a photo from Zala, West

Photographer's Note

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Keszthely city is the capital of the lake Balaton.

The building of the Festetics Mansion (13-14) was commenced in 1745. It was given its present form between 1884 and 1887. The 101-room building houses a museum and a conference centre. Its most valuable room is the Library (15), which was built from 1799 to 1801. Its furniture is that of the original room and it comprises about 86.000 volumes. There are 16 chambers showing the surroundings aristocratic families lived in in the 18-19th centuries. The visitors can also admire the most beautiful ornamental weapons of the Hungarian National Museum as well as the Trophy Collection presented to the Hungarian state by the Duke Windischgraetz. The Mirror Gallery offers concerts almost every day during the tourist season.

Hello! Nagyon tetszik ez a képed, bár tényleg kicsit túlexponált. (A leírás elsö mondata kicsit megtévesztö lehet egy idegennek, azt is hiheti, hogy az a kis tó a Balaton... De ezt csak kötözködésnek írtam. :-)) Még egyszer: tetszik ez a kompozíció!
