Hamburg - city lving between 'Schanze' and University
I took these pics about two weeks ago when I visited a friend in Hamburg.
This is where this neighbourhood is located:
I really loved it. It was still pretty central but kinda removed at the same time while still being busy and interesting.
Wouldn't mind living in one of these:
Hamburg is definitly the capital of the smart car, they are everywhere.
The owner of this bike seems to be a St. Pauli fan.
More beer!
The bird was missing.
This was a hospice.
Graffiti is everywhere. Nobody bothers to remove it anymore.
Can you even call this graffiti?
Yes, gas is almost 9$/gallon.
Taken at St. Pauli S.Bahn station on my way back
The last 4 pics were taken at Hamburg-Blankenese. It a bit further west from the city center directly along the river Elbe and it's pretty much the richest neighbourhood of Germany. Germany's Beverly Hills. I only had a few minutes here but I'm surely going back to take more pics, it's very intersting. There's also a beach and an old town.
Great tour ! I know the major streets in Schanzen1/4 , with the busy and trendy bars and people . And I know there are some areas with those expensive britsh looking two-floor buildings in Hamburg , but thought more on the Rotherbaum or Harvestehude areas.
Hamburg is lovely! My aunt lives in Martin-Luter Strasse.
Ah, I've been there. It's between the city center and St.Pauli/harbour right?

Yes, there are way way more tours to do in Hamburg.
I think I'm going to do Eppendorf, Ottensen, maybe Altona and Blankenese.
Blankenese is beautiful, the thing that is very irritating though is that you never know if a street ends up being a privat street and where it might end.
I love Hamburg! I've been there a couple of times, but next time I have to check out this part better. I spent most time south and southwest of the area you marked on the map.
