#### See the city hall and cathedral of this state’s main city and travel to the mouth of the Weser River for a rich maritime tradition.

Split into two distinctive parts, Lower Saxony (Bremen Region) is a lively and appealing area on the Weser River. It is known for its multicultural and metropolitan city of [Bremen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bremen.d6050592.Holidays-City-Breaks) and intriguing and historic port town of [Bremerhaven](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bremerhaven.d6410.Holidays-City-Breaks). Visit this attractive pair of towns for a glimpse into the regional culture.

Wander through the quaint alleys of Bremen’s historic centre. Admire the Gothic façade of the [Bremen City Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bremen-City-Hall-Altstadt-Bremen.d6073445.Attraction) and pass through its impressive colonnade. Gaze up at the twin spires of the [Bremen Cathedral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bremen-Cathedral-Altstadt-Bremen.d6073449.Attraction) in the heart of the city. This central area is an audiovisual treat after sunset, when the bars and clubs come alive.

Relax at a café in Bremen’s trendy Viertel neighbourhood and go shopping in the upscale stores. See a dramatic performance at the resplendent Theatre Goetheplatz Bremen. One of the most popular hubs in the city is the Weser River, where such activities as dragon-boat racing and sailing take place. Make your way to the scenic [Bremen Bürgerpark](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bremen-Buergerpark-Neu-Schwachhausen.d6107342.Attraction) and see its impressive landscape gardens, lakes and woodland.

Drive north for 40 miles (65 kilometres) to reach the coastal town of Bremerhaven. Explore the Museum Port–Historical Harbour and board the ships that have been frozen in time. Get a sense of the seafaring customs here at the National German Maritime Museum. Other highlights of the town include the Fiedlers Fischmarkt, the River Weser Dyke Promenade and the Zoo at the Sea.

Explore the neighboring towns along this North Sea Coast area. Popular sights include the Bederkesa Castle and the Borkum Lighthouse.

The state of Bremen comprises two separate enclaves within the larger state of Lower Saxony. It is the smallest German state and is nestled in the northwestern corner of the country. Fly to the Bremen Airport or take a bus or train to the state’s principal city, which you can traverse by bike or tram.
