Margitsziget’s Plane-trees: A Magical Walk Through Budapest’s Past And Present

The plane-trees of the big island of Budapest, the Margitsziget, one of the enchanting sights of the city.

These majestic trees line the main avenue of the island, creating a natural canopy that shades the pedestrians and cyclists below.

The plane-trees are among the oldest and largest trees on the island, some of them dating back to the 18th century.

They have witnessed the history and transformation of Margitsziget, from a religious center to a royal resort to a public park.

But the plane-trees are not only impressive during the day. They are also magical at night, especially in the autumn, when the leaves turn golden and the light filters through them, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

Walking or biking under the Platan trees at night is a romantic and unforgettable experience that you should not miss if you are in Budapest.
