Hamburg and bread.

Hey, I am back!

Let me continue with the next city on my Spring Break trip.

We went to Hamburg, Germany.

Travelling by train in between cities are the best transportation method ever. I definitely recommend that. Though, I am a little upset that I could not get a stamp on my passport to prove I have been to Hamburg, but it is still worth it.

Train train train!

Honestly, I cannot tell a lot about my stay in Hamburg as I have forgotten most of them. However, I will highlight some of the places that I feel worth stopping by if you ever go there.

I must congratulate my mother; our Accommodation and Transportation planner for her amazing choice of hotels. This one in particular are very close to the main train station in Hamburg. Very very close. And if you need to find Halal food, it is just near by.

The main Train Station for Harmburg (I assume)

Random street art

We spent the rest of our travelling day walking around in some parts of the city. Out of nowhere, we reached the Alster Lake. It was almost sunset by the time we reached there. The view was just breath taking.

Again, another street art near the lake.

The next day, we hire the Hamburg Hop On Hop Off bus services. It definitely made our lives much easier. haha.

There are the RED and YELLOW bus tour.

We stop at few of the suggested areas. I managed to grab a very nice cardigan/jacket at one of the shops open underground for a reasonable price. Yes, underground! If you want to shop and do a little sightseeing, then you can go to the Jungfernstieg. It is situated in front of the Binnesalster. Thus, a really calming strolling experience.

Few buildings in Hamburg.

Picture!

This was close when we were there.

We took a boat tour around the port city, across the River Elbe. Definitely not the ordinary canal tour you find in most European country. Oh! We also had an amazing lunch around the area as well! It is situated next to the boat tour dock. I highly recommend you to eat there if you are in the area.

Sorry for the not very clear picture of the tour.

I'm not sure if this is exclusive shop or otherwise, but they serve fantastic dishes.

Loving this one in particular.

While you are there, do take your time to visit the Elbtunnel. It is an old tunnel still in use connecting the Southern city and the Inner city. If you are afraid of heights, you may find this a bit challenging to climb down the stairs (if you go by foot). Worry not, you will be able to take the lift back up to the surface.

Down down the tunnel.

You may walk across under the seaaaaa.

While you are at it, do visit the Hafen City District. It is still new. You can also go to the Miniatur Wunderland while you are there. I did not managed to visit it due to time constraint, but I would love to go there if I get the chance to visit Hamburg again.

View around the new city.

The souvenirs are really pretty in Hamburg. T-shirts for example, the designs are something that I would (am) definitely wear if I go out.

Did I mention that they have this huge Hard Rock cafe?

These are only some of the many delicious bread the have.

Yeap, that is about it for my trip in Hamburg. We did spend a lot of time eating German's specialty - Bread. They have wonderful bread over there. ;)

Till next time. :) Copenhagen baby.
