Things to Do in Hamburg
When it comes to keeping visitors entertained, Germany's second city is a tour de force. With over 50 museums and an endless array of restaurants and bars, this place is a heaven for culture vultures, cool kids, and foodies alike. In addition to traditional museums, there are curiosities to discover, such as the delightful Miniatur Wunderland. If you are looking to have a rummage through interesting bric-a-brac, then a visit to the Flohschanze flea market is a must. Open every Sunday and located in the hip Schanzenviertel district, you can find just about everything there. Highly recommended are the boat tours, so you can sit back and relax whilst you are taken to all of the harbor highlights. Finally, Hamburg also has an incredible nightlife. Aim for the Reeperbahn district and end up at the Fish Market (for the hardcore party animals). Hamburg has something for all appetites!
