Siófok Palm & Banana Garden
Siófok’s Hidden Oasis – The Palm & Banana Garden
When beach weather is out, Siófok has a little-known gem: the Palm & Banana Garden.
Tucked into a private home’s garden over 3.5 years, cared for by plant enthusiast Dr. Bálint Magyar, this exotic oasis boasts palms, banana trees, orchids, and more.
We visited in spring—when there wasn’t much greenery yet—but the garden’s atmosphere stayed with us. The gentle water trickles, goldfish gliding in a small pond, the fresh air—it’s truly calming. The walking paths invite you to pause and reconnect.
Bálint, with his horticultural background, is happy to chat about his plants and share care tips with visitors.
Where is this store?
About 10 km from Zamárdi, in Siófok.
How to get there?
The easiest way to get there is via the M7 motorway, take the Tesco-KFC-Burger King exit, then continue straight ahead and turn right a few streets later.
How much does it cost?
Looking round is free, but beware that you might end up with a heavy potted plant under your arm!
