Gütersloh

　　Gütersloh is a city in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, serving as the capital of the district of Gütersloh and part of the administrative region of Detmold. It is located in the southwestern part of the Teutoburg Forest and, together with nearby Bielefeld and Herford, forms a densely populated urban agglomeration.

　　Gütersloh is an industrial city, but its streets are lined with shops and gift stores, making it highly attractive to shoppers. The Gütersloh City Park, built between 1906 and 1909 and featuring a botanical garden, is a great place for leisure and recreation. The botanical garden was established in 1912 and is located in the northeastern corner of the park. The Gütersloh City Museum primarily showcases the history of the city, including two exhibitions that highlight its industrial and medical heritage.
