Herrenhausen Gardens

The Royal Herrenhausen Gardens comprises of the Grosser Garten, Georgengarten, Welfengarten and Berggarten. I’m not much of a garden expert but apparently the most important movements in the garden arts can be found here: French Baroque, the English landscape garden and the botanical garden. To me it looks like lots of cool shapes. :D

(More info and “Bird’s Eye” photography on the official site.)

    The link to the official site seems to be broken.
