A "golden hexagon" is a set of six points, which is projectively equivalent to the vertices of a regular pentagon together with its center. Such a geometric figure generalizes in some sense the classical one-dimensional golden section to two dimensions. This paper deals with some remarkable properties of golden hexagons and with special Euclidean representatives as well as with further generalizations. Keywords: golden section, golden ratio, golden cross ratio, geometrically defined iterative processes, Desargues' Theorem, polarity with respect to a conic, Moebius circle geometry, bio-geometry, regular polyhedra. Classification: 51M04; 51M05, 51M20.
