I like Hannover cuz you get this sense of coziness right there, as it is a small town so I guess people there are more friendly and simplistic than the people in Berlin or other big German cities where people are always busy as well as practical but in Hannover the case is so much different where you get this cozy feeling and the locals there are so nice and friendly Germans and they do have a lot of free time to spend in brewries, bars, pops wherever but most importantly that the type of life in Hannover is smother and lighter than the very big German cities. For me, personally speaking, in Germany I prefer small towns and enjoy life more in such snug villages or towms in terms of everything including the people right in such cozy towns

You need to go to Linden-Nord and the east town of hannover when you ever go there again. Linden is for Hannover what Kreuzberg is in Berlin. And the East town is just beautiful. Nearly untouched by the bombs in WW2 and with most of the houses remaining. Nearby you have the Eilenriede, a city forest, multiple times bigger than the Central Park NY.

Rathaus is really an impressive building which is worth visiting. And if you want small town feel, I'd recommend Celle.

I have lived in Stuttgart and Dortmund and now living in Hannover for last 6 years and absolutely love it in comparison to other two which are bigger than Hannover.

I lived in Hannover for a bit and everything you said is so true. Especially about the service… which isn’t really that bad but just not great either. Great place to live in summer with all the parks and lakes around. A couple of great picturesque beer gardens which are awesome on a summers night… my favourite was the old at the old royal stables next to the Eilenriede.. can’t remember the name.

Being from Hannover i can see your points :D For a tourist Hannover has not much to offer on first sight, but if you do your city tour with a person from Hannover and yes even the nightlife tour there are plenty of things to do i guess. You can start a tour across the city in the morning and party until 11AM. It is just hidden sometimes. I had different friends over from the states or brazil and I guess if they would have taken the tourist tour they would not have been that satisfied ;) I guess that goes for a lot of cities around the world so hannover is a mediocre city but I like it

My mother was born about 40 km east of Hannover. As to your comment about the weather, I would like to add only this.

September and October are among the sunniest months there. November and May are rainy, just as they are here in Toronto, Canada. December and early January (the time of your video) tend to have mild temperatures;; however, it is often overcast.

The summer months are quite sunny. I have experienced very cool and very hot summers with the trend over the past 30 years to hotter summers.

Love your videos. Thanks for appreciating also the more modern cities like Frankfurt or Hannover which are often underrated.

Thats pretty much a good description of my home town- well done though.The main train station has always been crazy scary...I miss good old Hannover sometimes. Hey did you know, that Hannoveranias LOVE their city and don't understand why people move to Berlin or Hamburg?? Thank you from Queens, NY.

If you want a Berlin oder Hamburg feel in Hannover, Linden-Nord is the place to go.

[HannoversSoap]

[sneha]

Absolutely agree with you. Had a similar experience.

Any thoughts on Bremen? I'm going next week.

If you like towns with a nice historic center and a small-town feel, have you been to Tübingen? That's the nicest of those that I could think of:) (Apart from the obvious ones, Heidelberg etc)
