Hamburg
The beautiful city of Hamburg near the Elbe is still a gateway to the world. With its major port, the boulevards around the Gänsemarkt, the Mönckebergstraße and the Jungfernstieg as well as the Binnen- und Außenalster, the “Hansestadt” is one of the most popular cities in Germany. That is not only proven by Hamburg’s 1,7 million inhabitants, which make it the second largest city of the republic, but as well by 5,6 million tourists each year.
Especially in the summer it attracts visitors with its charming cafes in the multicultural-alternative “Schanzenviertel” or with the beautiful Eppendorf. Even after sunset, Hamburg has much to offer. Besides the “Reeperbahn” in St. Pauli, other attractions such as Musicals, Bars, Clubs or some of the worldwide best restaurants invite visitors for a stay. Early on Sunday morning a visit to the traditional fish market is a must. The Hamburger inhabitants relax in the recreational area “Planten un Blomen”, located in the world-famous Hagenbeck Zoo or walk through the “Speicherstadt” near the harbor.
The city even provides architectural highlights for instance splendid villas from the past or the typical urban cultivation in the “Gängeviertel”. Particularly popular is the Chilehaus and the St. Michaelis Church, which is often called "Michel" by the people of Hamburg. Some of the main cultural features of the city are the world-class museums such as the Hamburger Kunsthalle, the Deichtorhallen or the Bucerius Forum as well as major concert halls and theaters such as the Laeiszhalle, the Elbe Philharmonic, the Deutsche Schauspielhaus or the Thalia Theater.
In summer the annual open-air highlights Dockville, Reeperbahn Festival and Hafengeburtstag are not only attracting residents but as well many tourists.
Hamburg has always been known for its beauty and its prosperous economy. With its large publishing houses, the city belongs to one of the most important european media metropolis. Due to the easily accessible area arount the harbor, well-known companies in the logistics-, shipbuilding-, banking- and insurance-industry settled early.
The city with the second most bridges - behind New York - always has a suitable venue for all kind of events. If it is a wedding in the “Speicherstadt” with a stunning view of the harbor or an open air event in one of the green lungs of Hamburg or at the “Binnenalster”.
