Destination:
Hanover

Located on the bank of the River Leine, Hanover is a small yet humble city and has become one of Germany's wealthier cities, best known for hosting the annual commercial expositions, such as the Hanover Fair as well as Oktoberfest Hanover, the second largest Oktoberfest in the world.

Although a substantial amount of the city was destroyed by Allied bombers during World War II, Hanover has retained its sense of history and charm, evident in its medieval attractions and distinctive timbered buildings. Complete with world-class shopping centres, wonderful museums and churches, and a love of all things beer related, Hanover has plenty to offer the intrepid traveller.

An integrated transport system means that visitors to the city can experience all Hanover has to offer and the 'Red Thread', a 3-mile (4km) red line painted onto the road tracing the city's most famous attractions means that tourists can explore this exciting destination at their own leisure.
