All right I’m going to unite these two statements above and you're going to see some further impressions of Leipzig.

And now something different. This is also (a part of) Leipzig!

The quarter Connewitz in the South of the city was notorious back in the 90's for its huge squatter's scene, the biggest one in eastern Germany.

Especially on May 1st and on New Years Eve collisions and violent conflicts with the police occured regularly and still occure. But as far as I know the situation has considerably calmed down in the last decade!

More and more "common and moderate" people move into this quarter, especially students. Between Connewitz and the inner city there's the Südvorstadt, a very popular and animated district of Leipzig. And between Connewitz and the Südvorstadt there's also located the University of applied sciences.

Actually, this thread is supposed to show Germany's most beautiful cityscapes. The last bunch of pictures doesn't really show that, I think.

christos-greece · November 19th, 2009, 06:11 PM

Many thanks for those updating photos

Well, actually I'm pretty aware that these last pictures won't be considered as purely beautiful and they're not even supposed to do so! The reason was that I intended to show some different aspects of the small "big city" of Leipzig.

One week ago I already posted some very nice night views of Leipzig and also yesterday I posted at first some 15 picturesque images of “Cafés” in and around the inner city.

That’s why I thought it would be interesting and honest to show also some diversity. And in my opinion all these different aspects of Leipzig are part of its specific attractiveness.

The second reason was to show a quarter in constant change that gets more and more attractive with an annual increase in population of 3 % (whole city: 1%), with lots of green areas. Perhaps Connewitz will develop in a similar way like the Prenzlauer Berg in Berlin – in a smaller dimension of course!

Even better comparable to Dresden-Neustadt! But if you're insisting Then I'll delete the pictures!

No, it's okay!

I know you already posted some beautiful cityscapes here. Thank you very much for that! I just wanted to mention it, before others would flood the thread with too much similiar pictures. Because I know many people like those gritty places and they might even see beauty in it. But the thread title said: most beautiful in all of Germany.
