[@manub.3847]

Jaenischpark, Oevelgönne, Altes Land with the half-timbered houses and so much more ;) Oh yes and about the "missing high-rise buildings" -> no high-rise building is higher than the highest church tower; I'm just not sure if this is in the building regulations or an unwritten law :) Even the new high-rise buildings that are to be built at Diebsteich train station are “only” 60 and 90 meters high. As a rule, only chimneys, transmission masts and the like are higher than the St. Nikolai Tower and the other churches. Although a high-rise building with a height of 245 meters is planned soon. -> I don't think it's good, something like that spoils the overall picture.

You missed the whole city and the most beautifull places. Even the Fischbrötchen was tourristy stuff...

The south is also nice with the harburger berge and the heathland 😉

[@hape3862]

Pro tip: In Germany, you don't necessarily have to look for an ATM, because in (almost) all supermarkets where you can pay with your card (Apple Pay, etc.), you can withdraw additional cash (up to €200) at the checkout. Simply say before paying that you want extra cash. The money will then be added to the bill and handed to you at the checkout.

As others have said before, the DOM is pretty much the biggest carnival of the year, like a state fair would be in the US except it happens more than once a year and stays around for a while both times. If it wasn't for the damage that the winter weather would cause, I'm pretty sure we would keep it around all year long, hard to get tired of it ever.

[@1Apep1]

I love your obsession with coffee quality. One thing that makes Hamburg special is how all the different groups of people share a lot of the same spaces. You saw it at Fischmarkt with those who got up early and those who stayed up late. Reeperbahn has theaters, strip clubs and live music bars on the same street. You have top tier restaurants in the most alternative neighborhoods. Hamburg is one of the cities with the most millionaires in Germany, but also a centre for leftist activism and underground culture.

That is such a good observation, you’re right! I loved that about the places I visited 🥰

The YT algorithm recommended your video to me and I'm so glad it did.

You have only been to the centre and I am always sad that the tourists only get to know this. Every part of the city is different and has its own centre... What I like about living here, is that you can hang around outside all day and make new friends everyday, if you want to. But also are very anonymous, bc there are so many people.

[@rice_frying_shrimp]

The Speicherstadt is actually host to a lot of Hamburg's Coffee and Tea culture because many of Germany's biggest importers settled there and still have their offices there to this day, all dating back to the Hanse days. The place you went to, the aptly named Speicherstadt Coffee actually has (in my humble little opinion) the best coffee beans in Germany. They have dozens of different roasts so there's something there for everyone. The beans are actually Demeter approved which is just about the most rare seal of approval you can get in terms of organic foods, meaning from the farming process to how they are roasted, everything is checked with a pretty anal standard for quality, so you actually know something is worth it's high cost when you see that green Demeter Organic label on there.

[@rice_frying_shrimp]

Meanwhile the other Café "Barrossa" is more or less a tourist trap. Been there, not even remotely worth the price. Views from seating are nice, but that's all you get.

Small coffee roasteries like the one in the speicherstadt are part of the reason why Starbucks didn’t really catch on in Germany and Hamburg in specifically.

The Thing about Hamburg is that as a Local you hardly ever visit the Tourist Spots, most great Places are the ones that you would not find so easily without leaving the Citycenter and Elbe. Or maybe as a local i am just having a hard time enjoying places that are so touristy, idk :). You caught a beautiful day though and it looked like you had a great time. Cheers from Hamburg

[@doubleT84]

As a local, try walking around more often and consciously decide to take another route than last time. I work in St. Pauli and once or twice a week eat lunch at Gänsemarkt. Sometimes I walk through Planten un Blomen, sometimes through Johannes-Brahms-Platz, sometimes Großneumarkt ... suddenly you find yourself in streets like Peterstraße or Bäckerbreitengang, which look like straight out of 1800. One step sideways and you're in Speckstraße in the middle of the alternative scene. I can go to the same location 8 times a month and have walked 16 routes and never once did the same twice.

If you want to see all you can plan a whole day for it) Alter Elbtunnel, Its the first tunnel crossing the elbe, its right beside the "landungsbrücken" The Harbour.

We actually have two botanical gardens, the old one Planten and Blomen (Dutch name btw) and the slightly newer and smaller Loki-Schmidt-Garden, named after one of our cities heroes, who was also the wife of former German chancellor Helmut Schmidt. It's a small drive outside of the city center, but completely worth it in my opinion. Inside there's Café Schmidt, which has like 4 locations in all of town and they're all in the west side, so going to the garden and getting the opportunity to go to the Café is pretty much worth it on its own, even without considering how cool the garden is. There's also plenty of other things to see on the west side and best of all, you can get there so easily by taking a quick boat trip down the Elbe from Landungsbrücken to Teufelsbrück and then the garden ist just 3 bus stops or a 15 minute walk from there.

the name "planten un blomen" is low german, not dutch. It's part of the "Niederdeutsche Gartenschau" so the low german garden exhibition. The name means plants and flowers.

[@rice_frying_shrimp]

I definitely think visiting Hamburg in the summer is the right call btw. because it gets miserable here during any of the darker seasons. Even the christmas markets as much as I love them don't really compare to what other cities have, even within this area. The one on the Reeperbahn is fun because it's basically the red light adult version, it's called "Santa Pauli" because it's in the St. Pauli neighborhood and the Santa joke explains itself. But I do think that you get a lot more mileage out of your visit during the summer, even if it's more crowded because so many of the sights are outdoor things, that's why even us locals get immensely depressed during the winter with there not being a ton to do indoors. There's a handful of things that are still fun for tourists during the winter, but obviously when everyone flocks there because it's all the things you even can do, it becomes a lot less fun.

I'm actually going to Hamburg for the first time for the Christmas markets in a couple of weeks. Would you mind mentioning the things you think are worth doing during the winter for tourists? I'm definitely going to check out Speicherstadt Coffee you mentioned in another comment. Thanks!

@@adriankelly781 Miniature Wunderland is a famous year-round exhibit of model landscapes. They are constantly expanding and building new pieces. It's phenomenally interesting for people of all ages and probably the N1 thing I would recommend anyone to do during their stay. Tickets can be a bit dicey, but there is plenty of information about it online. The Zoo has had a "Tropenhaus" for a while now, which is basically an Aquarium but extended to also included all manner of other tropical animals like lizards, snakes, frogs, etc. which is really worth the time and a great thing to do on rainy days. Once again, tickets can be a bit of an issue because afaik it's tricky to order them online or in advance which can result in having to queue up outside during bad weather, but that can be circumvented by just going there on a weekday usually. The harbor boat tours are incredible and plenty of them are heated and under a glass roof now, so they're worth doing in the winter as well, not like that harbor changes much through the seasons... As far as nighttime entertainment, pick your poison. It's pretty much all indoors anyways. There's clubs, bars etc. in a few trendy locations (not really my scene but again, plenty of easy to find articles on the web about it). Personally I would recommend checking out the theater and concert scene though if you're into that. Winter is a great time to go to the Staatsoper or, if you can manage to get a ticket, even the Elbphilharmonie. That being said, if that's not for you, there are plenty of other events in places like the Laeiszhalle that are worth checking out. What I love about it is that you won't need to necessarily know the language to enjoy it like you would with most other forms of theater (though those can be fantastic as well and places like the FABRIK have plays in English and other languages as well). I also think just checking out some of the green areas around town can be underrated in the winter, as long as you can deal with the flaky weather (it likes to change up on short notice). Because places like the Planten and Blomen botanical garden are absolutely worth strolling through if you have an hour or so, still plenty of nice landscaping even when the trees ain't green. The other botanical garden, Loki-Schmidt-Garten is a bit of a ways out (about 25 minutes by train from downtown) but they have an entirely new lighting exhibit this year that looks fairly promising from the concept art I've seen. Quite pricey though, especially considering the botanical gardens are usually entirely free to attend. Let me know if you would also like some food recommendations, cause that's a whole other thing.

You were lucky to come at a time when the Dom was in town. I recall it used to come twice a year. If you want a REAL panoramic view of Hamburg, go on that Ferris Wheel -- at night! I went with my step daughter and a friend after school one day, and it was the one and only time in my life when I was on a roller coaster in a blizzard! Gotta love the German spirit! ;~) And if you're gonna have some sweets, you gotta try the Spritzkuchen with a nice coffee. Sehr lecher! Coming from Chicago, I really considered Hamburg my second home, one of my own choosing.

6:00 we hope you were able to shop cheap and good, we, the staff and blab last thank you, have a nice Sunday and come back to altonaer fish market soon

[@travelforphoebe]

Thank you!

[@biankakoettlitz6979]

Hamburger Dom is a Must visit when it is going and you are in Hamburg. But you should also visit the real North of Germany , Schleswig -Holstein, even if it's more rural, Esther North Sea, Heide, Wattenmeer or the other side like Flensburg, where you should try the beer with the same name!😃

[@travelforphoebe]

Thank you for watching! :)

[@finn4805]

Good video thanks to come to my town very good Video

[@travelforphoebe]

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@LucaSitan]

I hope you might also give the much smaller places a chance, like Rostock or the many towns along the Baltic coast. 90% of overseas visitors go to the same places (mostly Bavaria and major cities). Not just speaking for Germany, in all of Europe there are so many hidden gems off the beaten path! And they're cheaper too, especially the accommodation :D Still, love the video! Btw. on Sundays just get food delivered via Lieferando or a similar service

[@BobiR-bl9fc]

[@adriannakleszcz5833]

Elphie ist just built... Sometimes there are very modern things, but they are building in the similar style, in order to keep it smooth. Anyway, thanks for reminding me how incredible this city is :*

[@LizzieLeiding]

I'm often randomly drawn to Starbucks when I travel too... but I think it's a subconscious guarantee of a bathroom for me 😂
