City: Hamburg

Hamburg, Germany's second largest city, is a vibrant and sophisticated metropolis defined by water. Known as 'The Gate to the World' for its gigantic harbour, the city is crisscrossed by a network of canals and dominated by Lake Alster at its heart. From the historic Speicherstadt (warehouse city) and modern HafenCity with its iconic Elbphilharmonie, to the legendary nightlife of the Reeperbahn and alternative neighborhoods, Hamburg combines its Hanseatic pride with cosmopolitan energy and undeniable maritime charm.

Food Scene

90

A sophisticated and diverse food scene, from the humble fish sandwich to Michelin-starred restaurants, reflecting its status as a cosmopolitan port.

The 'Fischbrötchen' (fish sandwich) is the street food par excellence.The Sunday fish market (Fischmarkt) is an institution.The Portuguese neighborhood, full of excellent fish restaurants.Local dishes such as 'Labskaus' or 'Pannfisch'.
Eating in quality restaurants is expensive.The traditional cuisine is robust and very focused on fish and potatoes.

Culture

95

A heavyweight of German culture, with world-class art museums, one of the best concert halls in the world and a thriving musical theater scene.

The Hamburger Kunsthalle, one of the most important art museums in Germany.The Deichtorhallen for photography and contemporary art.The Elbphilharmonie offers world-class acoustics and programming.Capital of musical theater in Germany.
The museum scene is excellent but perhaps not as vast as Berlin's.

localFriendly

80

Hamburgers have a reputation for being 'Hanseatic': reserved, direct and formal at first, but polite and trustworthy.

English is very widespread.They are polite and helpful people.The universal greeting 'Moin' is friendly and breaks the ice.
Less effusive character than in the south of Germany.The initial formality can be perceived as coldness.

Tips for Gastronomy

The 'Franzbrötchen' for breakfast

Don't leave without trying a Franzbrötchen, a delicious puff pastry bun with cinnamon and sugar that is Hamburg's sweet specialty. You will find it in any bakery.

The Sunday Fishmarkt

Go early (very early) to the fish market. Not just to shop, but to enjoy a fresh 'Fischbrötchen' while listening to live music in the historic fish market. It is the best 'after-party' in the city.

The 'Moin' greeting

The universal greeting in Hamburg at any time of the day is 'Moin'. Sometimes 'Moin Moin' if you're feeling really talkative. Using it will make you look like a local.
