hegyhátak

Heghyhats, also known as hegyhats or hegyhatsok, are a traditional Hungarian folk dance that originated in the Transdanubian region of Hungary. The dance is characterized by its lively and energetic steps, which are performed in a circle or line formation. The music for hegyhats is typically played on traditional Hungarian instruments such as the cimbalom, accordion, and violin.

The dance is named after the "hegyhats," which are the rounded, conical hats worn by the dancers. These hats are often adorned with feathers or other decorative elements and are a distinctive feature of the hegyhats dance. The dancers wear traditional Hungarian clothing, including long skirts for women and breeches for men.

Heghyhats are often performed at folk festivals, weddings, and other celebrations throughout Hungary. The dance is also popular in other countries with Hungarian communities, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. The hegyhats dance is an important part of Hungarian cultural heritage and is enjoyed by people of all ages.
