Visit Hamburg and the Elbphilharmonie by train

Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany. Its network of waterways and canals - with even more bridges than Amsterdam - has earned Hamburg the nickname "Venice of the North". The arts-and-crafts markets, shops, open spaces, historical buildings, lively cultural scene, and diverse festivities shape the face of the charming city. Hamburg hosts the annual three-day Reeperbahn Festival at the end of September with a variety of music on offer to tempt any music lover. If you're a Beatles fan, remember Hamburg is also the place where the fab four made their name.
