However to the informed person, Hamburg is Germany's second largest city. It's not much of a tourist city. I would say it ranks behind Munich and Berlin in terms of tourist attractiveness.
Then why would I visit? Turns out that the Swedes love education, not only is school free here, they take you on trips. Thus I went to Hamburg with my class for free.
We had the opportunity to visit the planning offices in Hamburg and to take a tour of Hafencity and Wilhelmsburg. Unfortunately none of this is good blogging material therefore I'll just leave pictures and yes I did have a Hamburger in Hamburg.
It is also important to note that Hamburg was quite affected by World War II, this is most visible when walking through suburban areas. Bunkers were on every couple of blocks, most of them turned into playground, but there was this massive bunker in an area that we visited. No one has been able to safely remove it for the last 60 years and currently hamburg plans to turn it into a platform for solar panels.
