Hungary has Budapest as its capital and Lake Balaton as its largest lake.
Hungary is a landlocked country in Central Europe, bordered by Austria, Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia and Slovenia. The Danube divides Budapest into Buda and Pest before continuing south through the country.
Lake Balaton is Central Europe’s largest lake by surface area, covering about 600 square kilometres. Its shallow, relatively warm water and resort towns have made it one of Hungary’s best-known domestic tourist destinations. The northern shore is associated with volcanic hills and vineyards.
Lake Balaton is sometimes called the “Hungarian sea,” but it is a freshwater lake, not a sea. Slovenia and Croatia are plausible wrong answers because they also have famous Alpine or Pannonian lakes, while Hungary is the country matching both clues.
