A new video, released by Bangor City Hall, shows breathtaking aerial views of the Queen City.

One of the most common things I've heard people say when they reach the top of the Thomas Hill Standpipe is that they never realized how many trees there are in Bangor. When you're traveling the streets and visiting the local businesses, you don't necessarily notice the beauty of all that greenery. And don't forget the waterways!

Bangor City Hall unveiled a new video this week on its Facebook page that shows the city from a different perspective. You'll see the way the city embraces the river and streams and how obscured may of its streets are by the canopy of trees.

Thanks to photographer Monty Rand for this stunning glimpse of the beauty that is Bangor.
