Toric varieties are a collection of examples in algebraic geometry where you can compute explicitly. Even better, many computations on low-dimensional toric varieties can be visualized via some diagram in a lattice. In this talk I will explain toric varieties via polytopes and draw some pictures of Batyrev's construction of toric mirror symmetry.
