Translated from Hungarian, the picture is the “highlight of the Ribbon Opening Ceremony of the Weöres Sándor Primary School and Gymnasium.”
Young men and women, most likely in their teens, dressed in their nicest dresses and suits for a spectacular Viennese waltz that enthralled everyone in attendance that evening.
It’s like something out of a fairytale.
It’s a gorgeous dance with sweeping, flowing spins that move fast around the floor.
And, yeah, it is undoubtedly a romantic dance.
That is why it is frequently utilized in films.
The Viennese waltz is the oldest type of ballroom dance.
It was from a different era, when knights rescued maidens, and kings and queens were the buzz of the town.
When performed correctly, the dance has a really mystical atmosphere, as these boys and girls demonstrate.
From a cultural aspect, the dance might have been a way for leaders and officials to socialize and unwind.
It was a far more conservative era, with social conventions followed for the sake of tradition.
Watch the incredible dance below!
