The exhibition in the Gasometer inspired me so much that I was happy to go there a second time. To get some more sun, I then went to the Kaisergarten next door.

Today on Mother's Day I went on an interesting and varied walk in Oberhausen, of course with my parents😊 It went through the Kaisergarten in Oberhausen.

The garden is beautifully laid out. I thought the pedestrian bridge over the Rhine-Herne Canal, called Slinky Springs to Fame, was particularly cool. It has a floor that you walk on, like a tartan …

Short Sunday hike through the Kaisergarten, past the stadium and a short stretch along the canal.

In the morning there aren't that many people, so we got in without having to wait.
The exhibition is really great and the pictures are fantastic. 🥰😎

On the Rhine-Herne Canal you can watch the ships from stylish chairs, try out the Slinky Springs to Fame bridge, use the forest and meadow areas for a jog or a picnic, play mini golf, halfpipe or feed and pet local pets and European …

We used the gloomy morning to visit the Gasometer ("Planet Ocean," on display until November 30, 2025). It was already very crowded; many people had the same idea. 😀 After almost two hours at the exhibition, we needed to pick up the pace and marched towards the Kaisergarten (Emperor's Garden). Although all the parking spaces were taken, the Kaisergarten itself …
