Discover Hungary's most spectacular Easter park

The most beautiful Easter-themed park in Hungary has opened in Balatonlelle. Giant eggs, special and interesting figures, a rich egg tree, and lanterns are all awaiting visitors.

Balatonlelle Easter Park

More than 30 people work in the park in the centre of the settlement on the shores of Lake Balaton. Various entrepreneurs and volunteers decorate and beautify the area, writes likebalaton.hu.

Huge eggs and a decorative egg tree crown the Easter park.

Several of the elements were made by students from local schools and kindergartens. The park with this theme was first established in 2022. The city government, the House of Culture, and the Local City Beautification Association worked together to create the Easter Park. Zoltán Hartmann, the director of the Balatonlelle City House of Culture and Library, listed several programs.

“Those interested can meet egg horseshoes and egg painters, in addition, 30 types of folk wooden toys await the little ones,”

Hartmann said.

Diverse programs

Balatonlelle kindergarteners will put on a show. In addition, the members of the ensemble Lelle Folk Dance and the sports dancers of the X-press Dance and Sports Association will also perform. The organisers will introduce visitors to various crafts and traditional egg painting techniques.

There is a craft fair and delicious food and drinks as well.

This is not the first program of its kind from the residents of Balatonlelle. In winter, during the Advent period, the square was decorated with Christmas decorations. Year after year, the park is filled with more and more ornaments and decorative elements. The Christmas park has been held for years. Although the Easter park will be prepared for the first time this year, it is easy to believe that this will become a tradition as well.

The Easter Park will be open for one month.

It is worth visiting not only the settlement on the southern shore of Lake Balaton but also Kéthely in Somogy County. Here, in 2015, local people began an Easter decoration in the centre of the village. This has become a nationwide production for the past 7 years. More and more attractions await visitors every year, writes sokszinuvidek.hu.

The new decoration for 2022 is the egg tunnel.

The tunnel, which lights up at night, is a great addition to the more than 300-pound egg, the egg tree, and the giant bunny. You can visit the decorations until the end of April.
