Second only to Berlin in size and population, the city of Hamburg is home to one of the biggest harbors in Europe. A stroll along its many waterways and canals illustrates why it has been called the "Venice of the North." Don't miss a trip to the local fish market (Fischmarkt), the Merchants District (marked by its imposing red-brick architecture), a fine dining experience along the river or a night out in the university quarter. And did we mention the Reeperbahn (red light district)? It's quite famous for its… red lights.

Directly on the Reeperbahn lies probably the most famous police district of Hamburg. Around the architecturally great building is always hustle and bustle. Again and again TV recordings. Always worth a photo ...

This long boulevard is Hamburg's infamous center of nightlife and lies at the heart of St. Pauli.
I was fortunate to have a new local friend I met on the train take me out for the Christmas market one night and it was a blast! I got to see parts of the neighborhood my parents lived when I was born, although it has changed a lot since then. St. Pauli is definitely worth a stop, even if you prefer to go during the daytime. They block off a section of the street for the market, which once you enter, you are basically shoulder to shoulder so definitely watch your bags and pockets, especially if you are drinking! But you won't feel the cold as much! Venture down the bahn and into the sidestreets where the pubs and bars are including the iconic places where the Beatles performed. The crowds are so friendly and festive. This was likely the best and most unique Christmas market out of the eight I visited between Germany, Czech Republic and Prague. I last visited in summer of 1988. It is certainly more lively now. I can't wait to go back; next time during a warmer season!

Spielbudenplatz is the village square of Hamburg St. Pauli. Located right next to the lively Reeperbahn, Spielbudenplatz attracts residents und tourists likewise with events such as SANTA PAULI, St. Pauli Nachtmarkt, Street Food Session, Food Truck Festivals, Flea- and Designmarkets and live music. During summertime the containerbars spoil visitors with fresh drinks, while in winter the Winterdeck serves mulled wine and hot Cocktails.
