DESCRIPTION Lázár Equestrian Park, a tourist sight, by its choice services provides opportunity to entertain tourists from abroad, to hold coorporate functions and to organize family reunions for local guests as well. Growing by leaps and bounds each year, this community belongs to the administrative area of the village of Domony.
