The first pond has fountain and in the second is the artificial island for nesting ducks and swans. The third pond is the warmest and it freezes only in the rare circumstances in the winter. This region offers beside its beauty also the variety of the restaurants and locals. The three ponds are wonderful in every time of the year.
