Planten un Blomen park for children
Planten un Blomen is also known for their variety of playgrounds and other attractions for children. A visit is a must, especially for families. It can get really crowded here on weekends in the summer. There is a daily programme, ranging from puppet theatre to circus and the annual children's festival for the whole family. What is especially great is that all events are free to attend. Even if there is no theatre taking place in the "Großen Wallanlagen" (large ramparts), the little ones love the park because of the option of pony rides, the roller rink and the free workshop where you can learn how to use sound. For the adults, there is a great variety of excellent free concert events, from Hanseatic folk-style to classical.
The ice skating rink was renovated in 2010 and equipped with a new cooling system. In the summer, it is used as a roller and in-line skating rink; at over 4300 square metres, its total area makes it one of the largest open-air artificial ice rinks in the world.
