Hanover (German: ''Hannover'' , French: ''Hanovre''), is the capital of Lower Saxony (''Niedersachsen'') in Germany. Having a huge exhibition complex built for the World EXPO in 2000 and being host of several biggest exhibitions in the world, Hanover calls herself the "EXPO City" or "Exhibition City" (''EXPO Stadt''/''Messestadt''). Hannover was also one of the host cities of the football World Cup 2006. The major language spoken is German. English is ''not'' common, except during CeBIT or major international event. Hannover is not a typical European city.
Don't expect to see beautiful centuries-old buildings; the city was one of the hardest hit during the World War II, leaving it with only a few historical landmarks. Even the Old City (''Altstadt'') area is "new"; all the old houses left standing after the war (around 40) were taken from throughout the city and collected in one place. Hannover has large green areas, with forests and big parks. The landscape is mostly flat, with the river Leine going through the city. The lake Masch (''Maschsee'') is rather spectacular, considering its size as a man-made object.
