Hanover City Highlights
Hanover Old Town in the city centre
In addition to being one of Germany’s top venues for international trade fairs and conferences, Hannover (pop. 525,000) recently played host to the nations of the world at the EXPO 2000 World Exposition.
In the city centre striking modern architecture has been successfully integrated with the lovely Old Town. An other must see attraction are the Great Gardens of Herrenhausen, one of the best preserved baroque garden layouts in Europe, with mazes and a fountain over 70 metres high (one of the highest in Europe).
