Take a tour of German Town of Hildesheim – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

In the German region of Lower Saxony, is the small city of Hildesheim, residing on the banks of Innerste River.

Owing to its lengthy history, it has been among Northern Germany's most vital communities.

Its great architecture, historic environment, grand plazas and bustling markets beckon people from around the globe.

Due to the air raids of World War II much of the city was destroyed, but a rebuilding effort was immediately initiated to return the structures to their original form.

Its half-timbered houses lining the town streets are brilliant examples of medieval German architecture.

Remaining loyal to its roots, this lovely little town is brimming with charm and hospitality.
