A modern German state capital with pioneering architecture and infrastructure, surrounded by idyllic towns and country districts – Hannover, the business location at the heart of Europe, is full of delightful contrasts.
Around 40 different theatres, numerous museums and art galleries and a State Opera of worldwide repute promise top class entertainment. And the Herrenhausen Gardens, the maritime atmosphere of the Maschsee Lake and a whole range of sporting events, open-air concerts and popular festivities are equally exciting attractions.
Picturesque corners of the historic Old Town (Altstadt) quarter of Hannover invite you to linger, and the exotic landscapes of the Adventure Zoo will captivate the entire family. Keen shoppers will find one of Germany’s longest pedestrian zones here. In many other towns of the region, historic half-timbered buildings provide a charming atmosphere for shopping. Local recreational areas in the vicinity, such as the Lake Steinhude, the Deister Hills, the Calenberger Land or the valley of the
River Leine offer a range of opportunities for leisure activities out in the open air.
A dense public transport system links up the entire region. We invite you to come and have a marvellous time in Hannover. |
