With some two million inhabitants, Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany. Its varied entertainment, creative scene and natural beauty leave other regional cities nautical miles behind. Water, in the form of the Alster and Elbe rivers, is always close at hand. The city’s port, which occupies nearly
one-tenth of the total area of 74.4km2 and is the largest in the country, welcomes visitors from
afar with its incomparable skyline.
