Just like the ladies and gentlemen of the court in centuries gone by, visitors today can stroll around amidst opulently designed beds, splendid sculptures and artistically clipped, illuminated hedges.
Water features can be heard babbling in hidden corners while the Great Fountain rises to an impressive height of 70 meter. ©Welcome to Herrenhausen Gardens
The Great Garden is surrounded by a canal accented by tree-lined walkways. At each southern corner garden pavilions in the French classical style are sited. Designed by court architect Louis Remy de la Fosse at the beginning of the 18th century they appear identical yet one is built of wood and one, having been rebuilt after a fire in 1752, is of stone.
With this post the little summer series about this awesome park is over and I hope you all have enjoyed this walk with me.
Because it was a really hot summer day with temperature high over 30 degrees Celsius (86 Fahrenheit) I've taken the whole Herrenhausen Garden series with my iPhone x. And also this camera had difficulties due to the high temperatures. Nevertheless I would say, not so bad the result - what do you mean?
No, summer is definitely over and the September shows us already his autumnal side. Wish you a wonderful new month and a great summer finish.
Sincerely yours,
Isabella
A beautiful park with lots of history. I like those fountains (or should I call them geysers?) set against the beautiful sky!
