Hamburg, Germany's second largest and most notorious city, is known for its magnificent harbor and for the Reeperbahn in St Pauli (the biggest red light district in the world and where the Beatles came to fame). Renowned for its wonderfully odd mix of bars, restaurants and nightclubs, Hamburg has cultivated a thoroughly enjoyable independent streak. It's also a hard-working port that's among Europe's busiest.
The big cantor houses along the canals are witnesses to its prominence in global trade, dating back more than 800 years. The so called 'Venice of the North' has attracted tradesman and sailors from all around the world giving it a multi-cultural flair. The city's grand diversity of architecture, parks, the Lake Alster and the River Elbe will inspire you wherever you go.

Suggested Itineraries in Hamburg
Out of the ashes of World War II rose modern Hamburg, which devoted more than 20 years to reconstruction and resilience. Always with an eye for a good deal, Hamburg attracted the country's media giants after the war with 15 of Germany's 20 largest print publications being produced in the city, and more than 6200 publishing, film, radio, television and music companies calling the city home.
Some 72,000 students study at nine institutions - the largest is the University of Hamburg. With 15% of its population immigrants, the city has a cosmopolitan flair.
