Hannover: Expo 2000 Grounds, Herrenhausen Gardens, and Lower Saxony's State Capital
Hannover is the capital of Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony) with roughly 515,000 residents. The city hosted Expo 2000, the last World Exposition of the 20th century, on grounds that now serve as the Hannover Messe trade fair campus, the largest exhibition venue in the world by covered area. The Herrenhaeuser Gaerten (Herrenhausen Gardens) date to the 17th century; the Great Garden's fountains and hedges are among the best-preserved baroque gardens in Europe. The Neues Rathaus (New Town Hall), completed in 1913, sits on 6,026 beech wood piles and has a curved lift that takes visitors to the dome for a view across the Maschsee lake.
Continental AG, the tyre and automotive parts manufacturer, is headquartered here. The Hannover Messe, held annually since 1947, is the world's leading industrial technology trade fair. Hannover Hauptbahnhof is a major ICE junction connecting Hamburg, Berlin, the Ruhr, and Munich. The city's Stadtbahn (light rail) and bus network run efficiently. Adult companionship in Hannover falls under Niedersachsen's regulatory framework.
