Southern Entrance

The character of EXPO Park South is both scenic and natural, and yet very formed. Material gained from excavating the rain water retention basin and from a soil management programme in Hanover was added to the originally flat site along the Messeschnellweg (a motorway to the trade fair grounds) to create a large hill and an embankment. These now define the site, while four Himmelstürme (towers) serve as prominent attention-getters.
