The tour takes you past historic cemeteries, impressive gardens, and picturesque green spaces. A particular highlight is the Gartenfriedhof, one of the city’s oldest cemeteries, where several well-known figures from Hannover are laid to rest. The Stadtpark is also well worth a visit, delighting visitors with its diverse range of garden styles, as is the idyllic Hermann-Löns-Park, a green oasis of tranquility.
