Az ország egyik legszebb természeti adottságokkal rendelkező üdülőhelye, Lillafüred a meredek hegyoldalakkal határolt Hámori-tó mellett fekszik. A Hámori-tó az 1810-es években jött létre, amikor Fazola Henrik megépíttette a Garadna és Szinva patakok összetorkolásánál a zsilipekkel ellátott völgyzáró gátat, hogy a felső-hámori vasverők meghajtásához a vízierőt biztosítsa.

A közhiedelem szerint Lillafüred névadója gróf Bethlen András földművelésügyi miniszter volt, aki 1892-ben felesége, Vay Lilla tiszteletére keresztelte el az egyik vadászat során felfedezett, lenyűgöző szépségű helyet.

Lillafüred and Its Surroundings
"... the valley is growing narrower and narrower, finally trapped between rocks, bluff and wild; the road is twisting and turning upwards along the bank of the Szinva, which forms numerous cascades and, on top of the hill, gathers in a lake. Its water is dark green as it reflects the forests of the surrounding peaks like a mirror." (Travel Letters to Frigyes Kerényi, Letter 10, written by Sándor Petôfi in Miskolc on 8 July 1847)
The meeting point of the Szinva and the Garadna streams, where the water of the latter runs into the Hámori Lake banked up by Frigyes Fassola, has been called Lillafüred since 1892. This area called the "Hungarian Tempe" by Ferenc Kazinczy started to become a holiday resort in the last decades of the l9th century, supported by András Bethlen, the then minister of agriculture, who gave this name to the new-born settlement for recreation and healing in honour of his wife, Lilla Vay, and as a token of his courtship.
Years earlier, Ottó Herman had already started to make benefit of the "spirit of the place", its nearly undisturbed silence and fresh air while spending his summers here regularly. From 1890 he lived and worked in the Pele House, at 33 Erzsébet sétány (Elizabeth Walk) at present.
Lillafüred lies in the eastern part of the Bükk Mountains, on the border of the eastern edge of the Plateau and the north-eastern edge of the south-eastern Bükk, in the valley of the Szinva, at 300-350m above sea level. It is surrounded by the Szt. István (St. Stephen) peak (605m high) if approached from the formerly mentioned direction, and by the Fehérkô-lápa peak (587m) and the Jávor Mountain (626m high) if approached from the latter direction. At its northern end, under Hotel Palota (Hotel Palace), where the valleys of the Szinva and the Garadna meet leaving the Hámori Lake, it borders on Felsô-Hámor (Upper Hámor).
The settlement stretching along the bottom of the narrow valley is primarily famous for its caves and waterfalls, the Ottó Herman Memorial House and Hotel Palota.
