About Hamburg

Hamburg is Germany's second city and biggest port, a place of canals, red-brick warehouses, a harbourside concert hall and the Reeperbahn.

Hamburg lies on the Elbe, about a hundred kilometres from the North Sea, and trade made it rich as a Hanseatic city. The Speicherstadt, a district of red-brick warehouses on timber piles beside canals, is listed by UNESCO together with the neighbouring Kontorhaus quarter. Beyond it the Elbphilharmonie concert hall rises from an old warehouse, with a public viewing terrace over the harbour.
