A break from the hustle and bustle of the city
How wonderful it is to take a break from the hustle and bustle and stroll through nature! Hildesheim makes it easy; the city has a green heart. Around two-thirds of its core is enclosed by the historic ramparts, which were once built to protect the citizens and now serve as a protected landscape for your relaxation – so you're never far from nature in Hildesheim. A vibrant display of flowers sparkles in the sun, the air is fragrant with fresh grass, and cheerful birdsong fills the air from the crowns of tall trees. While strolling through the parks, stop by the baroque Magdalenengarten, the romantic Liebesgrund, or linger in the Ernst-Ehrlicher-Park with its English landscape architecture. You'll find that on such a walk, your thoughts quiet down, your breathing deepens, and your lips automatically turn up in a smile. And of course, there's plenty to discover along the way, such as sculptures by contemporary artists and the rich local flora and fauna. Furthermore, atmospheric events like the Magdalenenfest take place every year – so a break from the hustle and bustle of the city can also be very entertaining!
