10 Things to do Good for Couples in Hamburg That You Shouldn't Miss

December 27, 2021 Agatha Simes

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.

We stayed for 3 hours and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, there's lots of little details to see in the scenes and the airport with planes taking off and landing is impressive. The venue gets quieter later, it was a bit too full when we arrived at 2:30pm, and there are reduced price tickets near closing time. There's a cloakroom (50 cents) before the entrance, or lockers with returnable 1€ in the café. They ask you not to take rucksacks into the exhibition.

Dialog in the Dark

Dialog im Dunkeln is an experiential exhibition in complete darkness, which is not possible to explore on your own. Your blind host will guide you through the completely darkened exhibition in a small group of no more than 8 people. Equipped with a blind cane, you discover the world that we usually take for granted in a completely new way. You hear, feel and find your bearings in various non-visual situations of daily life; going for a walk in the park, crossing a busy city-street, going on a boat trip as well as visiting our Dark Bar. This is an experience which will stay alive in your memory long after your visit. Blind and visually-impaired guides are there to ensure your well-being at every step through this unfamiliar landscape. The last stop on our tour is at the Dark Bar, where you can talk about your experience over a drink with our guides, who are happy to answer all the questions which naturally arise during the tour.

Took the 90 minute tour which was absolutely worth it with my 3 kids (14, 16, 18) who also absolutely enjoyed it. Besides the experience to try to orient yourself in pitch darkness the tour provides insight into the obstacles of blind people. You can ask any questions and will receive valid answers. Next stop will be dialogue in silence.

I visited Loki Schmidt to see the Japanese garden and I was not disappointed. It is laid out faithful to the Japanese style, though it is not maintained to meticulous Japanese standards. The Chinese garden next to it is also laid out in Chinese style. Most of the garden is more typical of a botanical garden, set out in geographic zones, with the plants labelled. Even so, beauty arises here too. The rock garden is a surprising feature. Entrance is free but donations are welcome. Access is easy with Klein Flottbek S-bahn station and several bus routes on its doorstep.

St. Michael's Church

This huge 18th-century cathedral is Hamburg's best known architectural landmark.

Reviewed By Trac4 - Howell, United States

The Michel is a beautiful old and historic church. When we visited there was a Christmas market in the basement - pretty, but very crowded as well. The church itself is a beautiful place to just sit, reflect, and admire. Outside in front of the church was another Christmas market with booths and vendors, plus a Kemmsche Braune Kuchen bus which sold the famous cookies. I was thrilled to find it there. Definitely worth a visit to this beautiful church at any time of the year!

I would suggest to move more or less straight to the large building housing penguins, sea lions, polar bears and birds. There is so much to see - and afterwards exploring the rest of the Park is lots of fun!

Kunsthalle Hamburg

This huge art museum specializes in European painting. The historic building itself is worth the price of admission.

Reviewed By 361siegfriedr

Not many galeries offer such a wealth of paintings, spanning over such an ark of art history. Both german, flamish and italien masters from the 15-hundreds to the 19th century can be observed, and an impressive collection of impressionism, expressionism and modern art is also worth spending time at.

Reviewed By WLae - Hamburg, Germany

This historic part of the ancient harbour warehouse area is an impressive view as well as a cool place with lots of museums (minatur wondeland, ship-paintings, tee ....), amusement (Hamburg Dungeon, Dinner in the dark, ...). Further it is very close to the Elbphilharmonie which has been built on top of a former warehouse in that area. Special boat tours are available at Landungsbrücken to have a look at the old buildings from the waterside.
