Places to visit in Hanover

Hi,

For the ones living in Hanover, what would you suggest to discover the region?

When you have friends or family visiting you, where do you go with them? What are the must-see places in Hanover, the tourist sites?

How to visit the region in an original way? Any unusual or unknown place to recommend?

What would you suggest for a couple of days of for a week of holidays in Hanover?

Thank you in advance for participating ;)

A couple of great places to visit in Hannover were the New Town Hall and Landesmuseum.
New Town Hall has a nice little lake, and green lawns around it and it's a perfect picnic spot as well!!

Another great place that I forgot to mention is the Marktkirche. It's the only church that I have seen so far with a huge inverted pentagram, that is visible from a considerable distance! This character gives this church a very cool feel!
