Parks and gardens of Stuttgart
Most of Stuttgart's many parks and gardens are commonly referred to by locals as "Das Gr?ne U" (the green "U") because of their U-shaped shape in which they are located around the city center. They form a long and beautiful path around the city, starting from the Schlossgarten on the northern facade of the new palace (Neues Schloss), continuing through Rosenstein with the Museum of Natural History and the back entrance to Wilhelma (in the zoo), and ending with Killesberg Park. Walking at a reasonable pace will allow you to complete the entire circuit in about 2 hours. There are beer gardens (pay attention to the Biergarten signs) and restaurants along the way. And Killesberg Park is a real holiday. It was developed for a huge botanical exhibition a few years ago and remains a truly stunning park, especially in the spring when it is in full bloom. If you're interested in studying architecture, don't miss the structural engineering marvel — the Killesberg Tower, a minimalist steel structure consisting of one central support and an external cable support system.
