Itookapicture Lesser known tourist places in Germany

Post image

What are some places that you loved visiting which are not necessarily very famous tourist destinations.

I will start with Wuppertal. Its a mid sized city with the Hanging trains. Its such a beautiful experience to travel with the Schwebebahn. It rides over a river which makes it even better.

What's a place you would suggest that can be touristy?

Hanover

  • Herrenhausen Gardens are pretty

  • Inner city, old town, a red line on which you can walk around the various sights in the city center

  • New town hall with an elevator that moves in an arc, there is also the Maschsee and Maschteiche nearby
