The 6 Best Bodies of Water in Hamburg, Germany
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.

You can take a guided boat tour of the lake, or rent a canoe. There are running/walking paths through the park, along with bars and cafes.

These two lakes are a place for relaxation, sporting, walking and joy. In the center of Hamburg city these lakes provide scenery to and from the Altstadt and the rest of the city. An easy trip to cycle around these lakes and get various impressions of hamburg, since the districts around the lake are quite different
