Thank God the snow is gone but here are the pics anyway - Hannover, Germany

Spring in Hannover















State parliament of Lower Saxony


Fans on their way to a game of local club Hannover 96


AWD Arena, home of Hannover 96


Early morning, central station








Goose liver with apple slices or Duck à la banane with red apple cabbage?


Snow is never a reason to not sit outside








I'm not as hardcore as them, don't use my bike when there's snow on the ground.
That's one reason why I don't really like snow, I don't have a car and pretty
much use my bike every day












Police headquarters on the left






Town hall


Bus stop






































As you can see this house was partially destroyed in WW2


Same with this church, hence the weird looking lower part


















If you ever visited Budapest you will have seen the same streetcar in yellow




























School




























fire station








Police. Upper part was also destroyed in the war












Well, as longs as you are dressed appropriate, why not sit outside...


...even though I guess they just wanted to be able to smoke

A very underrepresented city in this forum. It looks really nice!
Please take more pics of Hannover, when the snow is gone, if possible.
It looks nice with the snow too however.

It might not have been fun walking around in the snow, but, it makes for some lovely pictures. Nice looking city, thanks!

Looks like a fantastic city, especially in the snow.

its better than winter without snow, now that sucks, when everything is just cold and slushy.

Nice pictures, and I love how a fresh blanket of snow gives the cityscape an instant make-over!

Well, I like snow but tbh I prefer a huge amount of snow for a short time to a few inches of snow for 3 months.
Like I said, riding my bike sucks when it snows.
We also have "mountains" nearby so when I really want to snowboard or ride my sled I can drive there by car in 90 minutes.
There's a lake in the city-center and when it's really cold you can skate on it, it's like a giant rink.
Also much more skate-able without snow.

No,I didn't. I was there of course but tbh, I didn't take any pics for weeks now.

Greetings to you. So how about a Neustadt-thread?

I always smile when I see pictures of cities that were utterly destroyed in World War II and yet look better than any American city. Obviously, some of this is just social and cultural. Germans didn't abandon their cities for crappy suburbs. They retained crucial masonry skills that allowed for construction of historic buildings. And fortunately, driving is not something everyone needs to do. That's a benefit of built-in density and transit. They reinforce one another.

Given our straitened energy future, European cities should offer some useful tips on successful human habitation. Please, America: pay attention.

Hannover frigid and under snow, I am enjoying this set. The city is quite attractive and busy.
