Taliándörögd

Taliándörögd is situated at the foot of the South Bakony Hills, in the so-called Dörögi-Szentimári Basin. It is a so-called dead-end village, however, records from the past suggest that it was once a station of the important market road leading to Tapolca. Today, if you take a walk in the village, you can explore the masterpieces of rustic architecture on rows of small peasant houses built at the end of the 18th century. Like the surrounding villages, the locals in Taliándörög are quite active in maintaining traditions: you can find all kinds of craftsmen here: sheaf-binders, basket-makers, smiths. You can find their products during the Valley of Arts Festival, too. You can taste the wines made from grapes grown by the locals in a peaceful rural environment, accompanied by traditional dishes made from goat’s cheese and curds.
