A visit to Hamburg

A visit to Hamburg, Germany.

Hamburg, the largest city in Germany after Berlin having population little over 18 lakhs, lies at the head of the long funnel-shaped estuary of the River Elbe. 

Its location makes it an important link between the sea and Germany's network of inland waterways and numerous islands.

 The city is best known for its famous harbor area, the Port of Hamburg. In addition to being a major transportation hub, Hamburg has become one of Europe's most important cultural and commercial centers, as well as a major tourist destination.

 Deichstrasse takes you straight onto a bridge over one of the city's many canals. Massive brick warehouses, built a couple of centuries after the Hansa's power faded, form a canyon along the canal's sides.

A second footbridge leads into the hottest new neighborhood, Hafencity, where old and new mix in a striking blend of 19th-century, neo-Hansa brick with contemporary steel-and-glass apartments, their balconies jutting out over attractive cafés, eye-to-eye with vintage sailing vessels. Many of the most interesting things to do in Hamburg are in this port area.
