Hi, it’s Zoom here from Birmingham Airport!

I love travelling and keeping a record of all the places I’ve visited in my scrapbook!

Check out this entry from Hanover!

Hanover

Hanover is one of Germany’s most beautiful cities!

It takes just under 2 hours to fly here from Birmingham Airport.

The Marktplatz in the centre of the Old Town is where you find many of the city’s historic and quirky buildings.

I learnt so much in Hanover from the amazing museums there! My favourite was the Zinnober Children’s Museum – you’ll love this as it has interactive exhibitions where you can get involved and try things out!

The Tramway Museum is also pretty cool – it makes the history of trams come alive, whether a 19^th century horse-drawn tram or a more modern underground train.

Phew! After that, you might need a bit of fresh air – and what better than Eilenriede – Europe‘s forest, that’s also in the middle of a city! The locals call it “The Green Lung!” If you’re lucky, you may see deer, foxes or bats.

If you’re a bit of an animal lover, there’s plenty more to see at Hanover Zoo. You can take a boat down the Zambezi through the savannah, follow the Evolution Trail to the top of the Gorilla Mountain, and see elephants, tigers and pythons in the Indian Jungle Palace.

I love being able to remember the trips that I have done.

Why don’t you create a scrapbook of your holidays? It could be online like mine, or in a book or on your computer!
