I have heard that this part of Hamburg is quite expensive with very costly apartments overlooking the sea. Take a walk around Hafen City . The thing i enjoyed most was to have an ice cream next to the Unilever Building watching the huge cruise ships parked there.

Take a boat to have a nice time sailing through the cannals and flats, enjoying the view of the old buildings surround. Looks like Amsterdam sometimes.
