Zorán Concert
19Sep Zorán tours the country year after year with his concerts and always sells out wherever he appears. He has had many big hits, but his new songs are also very popular, as the message of his music has somehow become timeless. Zorán is going on a concert tour in 2024! (Thursday) 19.

An interesting fact#libas-strandWe are going to Libás- if we are not locals or don't know Keszthely, we will surely look strange and perhaps the last thing we think of when we hear the word "Libás" is swimming. The beach used to operate as a free beach, before that they swam geese here, hence the name Libás - Geese beach.
An interesting fact#magyarok-nagyasszonya-plebaniatemplomIn 1896, the then parish priest asked Miksa Róth to make the stained glass windows of the church. He had worked on famous buildings such as the Parliament, and even left his mark in distant Mexico City. The windows he made for the church on the Main Square are still visible in their original state, with the exception of a few that suffered from the bombing during the Second World War.
Hint#georgikon-majormuzeumThe play barn may be interesting for today's children, since peasant children used to lounge in the soft straw, play hide and seek. Now there is the possibility to experience this carefree game with the help of the climbing ropes, hanging bars and climbing walls placed in the barn.
An interesting fact#nepviseletes-babamuzeumThe museum launched a competition with the help of the children's magazine Napsugár from Cluj, in which they asked schoolchildren and their parents to send in the traditional clothing of their locality. Some opinions say that this happened at the last minute, as folk traditions are beginning to fade in Transylvania. Similarly, traditional clothing arrived from Upper Hungary, Southern Hungary, and Transcarpathia.
An interesting fact#festetics-kastely-palmahaz-es-madarparkThe structural elements of the Palm House were made in the factories of Gustave Eiffel in Paris. Its excellent quality is evidenced by the fact that the main supporting elements, twisted columns, have not yet been replaced. Eiffel is associated with the tower named after him, or the conception and design of the Statue of Liberty in New York, but his company also designed the plans for the main building of the Western Railway Station in Hungary.Gastronomy
