These two artificial lakes (Inner and Outer Alsters) formed from the river Elbe in the 13th century are a prominent part of Hamburg's cityscape. The lakes' shores are popular meeting places for picnics and evening strolls, while water sports such as sailing are also on offer.

Old Elbe Tunnel

The Old Elbe Tunnel was the first tunnel under the Elbe River and was constructed in 1911. It stretches more than 400 meters under the river and accommodates cars, pedestrians and bikes. The colorful tiles and dome-shaped entry hall make for a quirky experience.

Hamburger Dom

The Hamburger Dom is the largest funfair in Germany and is held three times a year. It offers fun for the entire family and features old-style carousels, high-tech rides and delicious street food. Take a flight on the ferris wheel and see the lights of Hamburg spread below you.

Kunsthalle Hamburg

The Kunsthalle Hamburg – the city's largest gallery complex - is perfect for art fanatics. The architecture of the main building alone is worth a visit. The museum features paintings from the Middle Ages right through to contemporary classics.

Nightlife

Visit the world-famous red-light strip of the Reeperbahn and follow in the footsteps of the Beatles, who famously played regular concerts here in the early sixties. Bar-hop 'til you drop and dance until the sun rises amid a raucous atmosphere.
