Hearty German fare or a fresh ceviche? A wine tasting or a tea tasting? I have severe choice stress in Hannover. The largest city in Lower Saxony is perfect for lazy coffee moments, extensive breakfasts, tasty dinners, and everything in between.
Do you know the story about the pied piper from Hamelin? And did you know Hamelin actually exists? This cute town in the north of Germany is a must-visit in Lower Saxony. A few hours is enough for a mini city trip.
Celle has one of the largest half-timbered ensembles in Europe – that is, a lot of beautiful half-timbered houses in just a few square meters. That is also the biggest attraction of the town. But there is more to explore. Will you join me?
Hannover’s urban forest is twice the size of New York’s Central Park. The mayor would prefer a car-free center, and there are all kinds of initiatives under the heading ‘More nature in the city.’ So you guessed it right: there are plenty of green hotspots in Hannover. I’m happy to show you the way.
Hannover is a very green city in itself, but if you are looking for even more greenery and space, plan a visit to the Steinhuder Meer. This nature park and lake of the same name are ideal for a day out and about in nature.
Medieval timber-framed houses and BANKSY art. Schnitzels and ceviche. Hannover in Germany is a city that honors history and tradition while being open to new and modern. It allows you to make a fun combination of sights and activities during your visit to Hannover. I’m happy to help you on your way.
The snowflakes flutter, the sweet smell of crêpes alternates with the hungry-making cheese fumes from the raclette stall, and I warm my hands on a glass of mulled wine. Or a Gogli – the Finnish version. I’m loving the Christmas vibes at the Christmas market in Hannover.
If you want to escape the city and do something different in Hamburg, go to Gut Karlshöhe. This is an educational center for sustainability where you can experience all kinds of things. Like blacksmithing and cheese fondue in the woods – a perfect day trip in Hamburg!
