tartalom: + 1 On the occasion of Advent more and more Christmas lights go up also this year in Hévíz. In addition to the festive decorations of public places, service providers also await the visiting guests with more and more beautiful shop windows and decorated houses. The eye-catching Christmas lights, the decorations, which are sometimes traditional, sometimes  romantic and lovely  or in many cases made of using natural materials, the Christmas tree of the town and the Advent wreath together create the Christmas atmosphere of Hévíz.  This Advent, the Hévíz TDM Association also announced a Christmas decoration contest titled „A brilliant idea!”, for which anyone could enter, who felt that he/she offered customers a really gorgeus christmas window display.   The jury took a walk around the town in the afternoon of 4th December in order to rate the shop windows, and announced its rating points in several categories, such as elegance, harmonic appearence, style, use of natural materials, surprising, funny or fabulous ideas. The general public could vote for the service provider who would won the Audience Award based on the pictures shared by the participants on the website www.facebook.com/heviz.info. Awards were given out in a total of 4 categories.  I. Business premises, catering establishments: First prize: Hofbrau Vendéglő (Restaurant) (931/9 Nagyparkoló Square) Second prize: Magyar Csárda(Restaurant) (2 Tavirózsa Street) and Street Fashion clothes shop (2 Széchenyi Street)   II. Private accommodation: First prize: Guszti Villa (18 Széchenyi Street) Second prize: Fortuna Villa (1 Fortuna Street) and Kaktusz Villa (116 Attila Street)   III. Hotel category: First prize: Kolping Hotel **** Spa & Family Resort (120 Fő Street, Alsópáhok) Second prize: Lotus Therme Hotel & Spa***** (1 Lótuszvirág Street)  and NaturMed Hotel Carbona ****superior (1 Attila Street)   Audience Award winner based on the audience's  votes: Lotus Therme Hotel & Spa***** (1 Lótuszvirág Street)   The prizes were made by a local ceramic artist Barakonyi István, and we hope that they will be nice decorations of every winning shop window and building.   The jury chose the Hofbrau Restaurant as the absolute winner of the competition based on the total scores and the overall look. Therefore, besides the first prize the manager of the restaurant Czigány Hedvig  could also receive a challenge cup, for which there hopefully will be a lot of applicants next year.   We would recommend that our guests explore all the small beauties of the town, find the most atmospheric store, restaurant or accommodation, try the ice rink re-opened on 5th December after the bathings in the pleasantly warm water of the lake, visit the arts and crafts Advent market and warm up your heart by tasting a pleasantly scenting punch, tea or mulled wine under the twinkling festive lights.    We wish you a merry Christmas!

cím: Winter delicacies at Hévíz Market

lead: The sweet smell of roasted chestnut, pumpkin or hot mulled wine and chimney cake fill the air.

tartalom: + 1 As the cold weather has set in, we feel the winter more and more at our doorstep. Although there is no snow, the frost greets the beams of the rising sun more often. November is the month when we have a little time left to victual for chilly days. As the weather and the seasons change, so vary the sellers’ goods at Hévíz Market. Besides the usual wares - handmade goods, cheese, bakery products, meat, autumn fruit and vegetables - there are also cakes, decorations, food and drinks displayed, which spread the advent and Christmas atmosphere. The sweet smell of roasted chestnut, pumpkin or hot mulled wine and chimney cake fill the air. According to traditions new wine can be drunk after Saint Martin’s Day, so the nectar of this year’s harvest can be found also in the offer of the vineries selling at the market.     It is a part of the advent preparation that we set up our surroundings with decorations and soft lights. Sweet smelling candles, lampions, advent wreaths, decorations with angels and bells can’t be missing from the stands of the stall-keepers – of course all the goods are made of the sellers’ own material and by hand. Gingerbread, chimney cake, “bejgli” (poppy seed or walnut roll)… - are the essential cakes of advent and the Christmas feeling.   Walking among the craftsmen, antique dealers, wood-carvers, potters, textile sellers you might also find the perfect Christmas gift. You can choose from the offer of more than 300 sellers even in wintertime. Even the cold weather cannot frighten away the producers and the costumers. The market is very lively and busy even on cold days. From December you cannot only find the local sellers at the market, but also the ice-rink opens in its neighbourhood, so you can even combine the shopping with ice-skating or vice versa.   Visit the Farmers’ Market in Hévíz!   Opening hours: 1st November 2012 - 30th November 2012 Tuesday and Saturday from 7.30 am to 12.00 am Thursday from 1.00 pm to 6.00 pm   1st December 2012 – 31st December 2012 Tuesday from 7.00 am to 1.00 pm Thursday and Friday from 10.00 am to 6.00 pm Saturday from 7.00 am to 6.00 pm   1st January 2013 – 31st March 2013 Thursday from 1.00 pm to 6.00 pm Saturday from 7.00 am to 1.00 pm

cím: Anti cellulite therapy

lead: The aim of the anti cellulite therapy is to get rid of or to reduce orange skin.

tartalom: + 1 The aim of the anti cellulite therapy is to get rid of or to reduce orange skin. There are various methods for eliminating cellulite.  Most people, but mainly women fight a grim battle with cellulite. Cellulite or orange skin develops at the bottom of the skin and in the true derm. It can also develop at young age, not only in the buttock and thigh areas but also on the belly and hands due to extreme depositing of the fatty tissue. Due to the toxic substances deposited in the fatty tissue the adipose cells increase in size and as a result blood supply and lymphoid circulation deteriorates. But the reasons for orange skin may be the followings: genes, not sufficient amount of fluid consumption, metabolism and hormone disorder, external impacts, not enough exercise and improper nutrition.     Cellulite massage and physical exercise During the lymphoid and blood circulation stimulating manual massage the toxic substance extraction in the cellulite areas is increased and the stagnant tissue fluids are emptied. Physical exercise helps to break down fat storages and strengthens the muscles in the affected areas.   Body wrapping The affected areas are covered with a lotion containing fat burner active agents. The body is than wrapped in a special foil. The treated person spends approximately 35 to 40 minutes in the wrap. As a result of the treatment the skin becomes taut and orange skin symptoms are mitigated. Usually 15 treatments are recommended during one body wrapping therapy.   Body shaping lotions/gels Nowadays shops are offering various body shaping beauty care products with promises of taut and smooth skin after treatment. During prevention and treatment it is very helpful to detoxicate the body by drinking of plenty of fluids, to avoid fatty food, sweets and excessive alcohol consumption

cím: SPA-CE is returning to Hungary

lead: The 7th SPA-CE, the first and only spa and wellness trade show for Central Europe, will be held in Hévíz.

tartalom: + 1 The 7th SPA-CE, the first and only spa and wellness trade show for Central Europe, will be held from 1 to 3 October 2015 in Hévíz, Hungary. Around 30 spa and wellness providers from Central Europe will meet with more than 40 cherry-picked hosted buyers to find new business connections, learn and enjoy the warm Hungarian hospitality. As one of the oldest European countries, Hungary combines rich cultural experience with top-notch medical, health and wellness offer. Hévíz with the fresh colours of nature and the relaxing atmosphere is an ideal place for this boutique B2B event dedicated to spa and wellness tourism. Iztok Altbauer, Director of Slovenian Spa Association and SPA-CE organizer looks forward to another great collaboration with the Hungarian team: “After the 5th edition was held in Sárvár, SPA-CE is going international again. We are really honestly happy that the world famous lake resort Hévíz in Hungary agreed to be the host of this year’s meeting of the spa industry of Central Europe.” Orsolya Horváth, Managing director at Hévízi Turisztikai Nonprofit Kft and official host of this year’s trade show welcomes exhibitors and buyers to Hévíz: “»Nomen est Omen«, your name is your value, as the Romans thought. The name of the town means hot water, which in itself shows what is going on here. The world’s largest natural thermal lake that is suitable for swimming can be found here. A better reason is not needed to hold the event SPA-CE. Every participant can expect that we, as hosts, will make every effort to serve hosted buyers and exhibitors on the highest level.” Over the years SPA-CE has become the European junction for all professionals working in the spa and wellness tourism. Iztok Altbauer explains: “Just looking around us, the Central European region has the strongest focus on the spa industry in a concentrated area so great opportunities are waiting for us. We are happy to say SPA-CE is strengthening its position on this market every year. Since its beginnings, the show has hosted more than 160 providers of spa and wellness services and hosted buyers on average more than 15 countries from Europe. Also the number of B2B meetings is really impressive as it has surpassed 3.300. Another important fact is also that we are able to attract more and more new potential partners. Just last year, when the Slovenian traditional Spa town Radenci was the host of the SPA-CE workshop, there were more than 90 % of newcomers.” The boutique trade-show will again offer a one-of-a-kind experience. Next to business where the focus will be on pre-scheduled meetings between providers and hosted buyers, SPA-CE will offer a great educational programme and fam trip for hosted buyers. Registrations for exhibitors and hosted buyers are already open. Different exhibitor packages are available for spa and wellness providers at an Early Bird price till 31 May 2015. “We are welcoming all in Hévíz in the beginning of October where the European Spa business will meet for the first time. And we are sure you would not want to miss the opportunity to be a part of it,” said Iztok Altbauer. To find out more about SPA-CE please visit www.spa-ce.si or write to info@spa-ce.si.

The aim of the project is to create a Central European transnational balneological tourism product for the older (senior) age group that extends the market of medicinal and thermal tourism to those sending areas where the demand for medicinal and wellness tourism related to natural waters can be increased.  Objectives of the project: to create a tourism product network that takes into account the special needs of the older age group, to improve the number and quality of the cooperation between the members of the tourism value chain and the organisations/associations of the elderly, to increase the turnover of low or middle season in terms of tourism in order to improve the effectiveness and competitiveness of tourism SMEs, to promote tourism as the strategy of active and healthy aging, to increase the professionalism of the tourism service providers in order to ensure the sustainability and self-development of the project. For the sake of all these, the following main activities will be implemented by the partners: Conducting a research in support of the health tourism development: market study concerning the elderly, surveys, comparative analyses, researches testing the market of the elderly and balneological issues, involving the membership of AGE Platform as well as the customers of the travel agency Travel Specialist Group Sweden AB, Creating a balneological tourism product network, - through the example of Hévíz and Covasna - which offers location- and market-specific medical and health assistance programs for the older age group,   Discussion forums, workshops related to the project for the purpose of network building and partnerships, and exchanging good practices,  Extensive marketing communication, which addresses decision makers and potential travellers, and conforms to the special needs of target groups and to tourism trends. The first step of the project ending in September 2016 is the two days' meeting starting today in Hévíz, during which the participating partners coordinate the main tasks and actions.  The application was submitted in December 2014 by the partners for the European Commission's invitation to tender with the identification number „COS-TFLOWS-2014-3-15”. Due to the application prepared on high professional standards, the European Commission considered the project eligible for funding with the originally requested budget – with EUR 208,565 EU funds and EUR 69,533 deductibles.

cím: Hundreds of wishes written on coloured ribbons in Hévíz

lead: The two-thousand-year-old legend about the miraculous healing lake has been revived

tartalom: + 1 The most well-known Hévíz legend about the formation of the lake and its miraculous effect is linked to the Roman Emperor Flavius Theodosius. According to the legend, Flavius suffered from infantile paralysis. Every day, his Christian nurse prayed to Virgin Mary asking for the boy’s recovery. Virgin Mary answered her prayers and brought forth water. A whole lake was formed from the thermal spring. The nurse bathed the ill child in the water of the lake regularly. Miraculously, Flavius got over his illness by the help of the water and became a strong, healthy ruler, the emperor of the Roman Empire. Out of gratitude, he declared Christianity the official religion throughout the realm in 391. The legendary curative lake is none other than Lake Hévíz, in the water of which thousands of patients have been healed and have regained the pleasure of healthy movement since then. Where once a miracle happened, there it can happen any time again. Next to Villa Rustica (Roman Ruin Garden, at the end of Attila Street in Hévíz), the ribbons placed on the “Wall of Wishes” revive the Roman legend. Up to now, hundreds of Flavius wish ribbons have been placed on the “Wall of Wishes” by the guests of Hévíz. They wished, for instance, for world peace, health and happiness for their families, travel and long life, or successful school-leaving examination. Come and browse over the ribbons, then wish something. Write your wish on the ribbon and place it among the other wish ribbons. Virgin Mary already made miracle happen to Flavius once, why couldn’t the same happen to you too?  Flavius wish ribbons can be purchased in the Webshop, in the Museum of Egregy and in the Tourinform Office in Hévíz at a price of HUF 200.
