Artists,left-wingactivistsand

supportersdecidedto occupy

theoldhousesherewhenthey

were due to be demolished and

the result is a special place, full of

art. If you have time, pop into the

vegan café, Nasch.

Place to see by night

For a relaxed evening with wine,

I recommend Weinladen, which

feels like visiting friends.

Best view

You get a great 360-degree view

of the city from the platform of

our concert hall building,

Elbphilharmonie.

elbphilharmonie.de/en/

One thing you must see

The historic Elbe underwater

tunnel connects the two sides of

the city. Coming up on the other

side after a 20-minute walk gives

a new perspective on the city.
