The Old Town
Hannover is a capital city set among green surroundings; it is famous for its
magnificent opportunities for recreation right on the verge of the city centre. You
can go jogging or inline skating through the unspoilt city forest, the Eilenriede, or
around the shores of Maschsee Lake. You can stroll through parks and gardens,
or through the picturesque Old Town. In the central shopping area you can enjoy
glittering shopping malls and department stores, or gastronomic diversity in cafés,
in the Market Hall or in top-class restaurants. The Flea Market on the banks of
the River Leine every Saturday provides a contrasting programme of an unusual
kind. At Hannover Adventure Zoo the animals inhabit theme worlds that will prove
unforgettable for all the family. And sports lovers can cheer on the footballers of
Hannover 96 or the crack ice hockey players of the Hannover Scorpions.
The Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen provide a leafy location with a unique atmosphere for classical concerts, small-scale artistic performances and the spectacular International Fireworks Competition. The heart of the garden complex is the
Great Garden, one of Europe’s most important baroque gardens, a delightful place
to stroll between richly ornamented formal flowerbeds, magnificent sculptures
and lovely fountains.
Hannover Marksmen’s Fair
Maschsee Lake Festival
There is much to see and do in the Hannover Region too, where many old agricultural traditions are still maintained and cultivated – for example the Threshing
Festival at Schillerslage, the Potato Market in Otze, or the historic Free Shooting
competition in Wennigsen, which has been celebrated there for 150 years. And
the Festive Weekend at Lake Steinhude is a popular event that takes place against
a fantastic backcloth of illuminated boats, with an aerial fireworks display and
numerous other attractions.
