A must-have guide for visiting Hamburg

1. Hamburg, the second largest city after Berlin! It is indeed the "Gateway to the World" for Germany, and I fell in love with it immediately! If it's your first time in Hamburg, I recommend following this route: Hamburg City Hall (a luxurious city hall built with sandstone, in the Neo-Renaissance style). 2. Worth a visit! St. Nicholas Church was destroyed by air raids during World War II. Although only a spire remains, you can still see how magnificent it once was! I highly recommend visiting the top of the tower for a panoramic view of the entire city. Adults: €6, Children: [Price missing] Hamburg Speicherstadt (Warehouse District) is not only the world's largest warehouse complex, but also a symbol of German unification, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site! Now, the warehouse district no longer serves its original shipping and storage functions, but has become a place for leisure and entertainment, with many interesting cafes. I highly recommend visiting the docks. Adults: €20, Children: €10 3. Miniatur Wunderland: A highly recommended place to visit in Hamburg! I strongly suggest reserving 3 hours for your visit. If you have children, this will definitely be their favorite! It's the world's largest miniature wonderland, covering almost all railway lines worldwide, at a scale of 1:87. Almost all the model trains are running, and there are many interactive installations! Both adults and children will be amazed! Ticket prices: Adults: €20, Children under 1.3m: [Price missing] 4. FREE Elbe Philharmonic Hall: Hamburg's tallest building, offering a panoramic view of the harbor. If you enjoy live performances, be sure to book tickets in advance, as there are usually none available on-site! The observation deck is free. You can visit for free even if you don't attend a concert. 5. Hamburg, a city full of history and art, with its Gothic architecture as its most dazzling jewel. Take a spontaneous trip, let your soul wander through the long river of history, and experience the unique romance and wonder!
