Entertainment
Hamburg is an exciting city with a culture evolving around its harbour. Some things one must see when visiting Hamburg:
Elbphilharmonie
The Elbphilharmonie, popularly nicknamed Elphi, is a concert hall in the HafenCity quarter of Hamburg, Germany, on the Grasbrook peninsula of the Elbe River. It is among the largest in the world.
Landungsbrücken
The floating dock – called the “Landungsbrücken” (landing stages) – is 700 meters long. Harbour tours and the HADAG steamers to Finkenwerder, Oevelgönne and Blankenese leave from this water “station”. Impressive luxury cruisers also dock here from time to time. A great place to watch ships and have an ice cream, but beware of the seagulls.
Speicherstadt
The century-old Speicherstadt, the world’s largest contiguous warehouse complex, is located in the Freihafen (free-port) between Deichtorhallen and Baumwall.
St. Pauli, Harbour & Reeperbahn
This is where Hamburg’s heart beats. On Hamburg’s city coast, the Elbe and the harbour, you can sit on bollards and look at ships or simply let the rough wind blow around your nose. Just a few meters further on, in the heart of the St. Pauli district, you can experience the “sinful mile”, the Reeperbahn, known all over the world. If you don’t like one after the other, you can simply take a stroll through the streets far away from the Reeperbahn and indulge yourself with culinary delights.
Jungfernstieg
It is the heart of the city centre for many locals and tourists: the Jungfernstieg – a diverse connection between the Inner Alster and the surrounding shops and attractions.
