About Hamburg
Hamburg is Germany's port city — canals, red-light districts, Beatles history, and a vibe that's more Amsterdam than Berlin. The Reeperbahn is the party street, the harbor is massive, and the fish market on Sunday mornings is a ritual. Underrated compared to Berlin and Munich.
- •Reeperbahn nightlife district (Beatles played here)
- •Fischmarkt (fish market) on Sunday mornings
- •Speicherstadt (warehouse district) and Miniatur Wunderland
