A quick trip up the Elbe River brings travelers to Hamburg, another charming German port revived by post-war industry. Many historic sites survived the Allied bombings that devastated the region between 1940 and 1945 -- popular stops include St. Nikolai’s Church, a Gothic landmark, and the regal Rathaus, a town hall built in the late 19th century -- but modern marvels also are a focus here. The staggering HafenCity project, one of the most prominent inner-city developments in Europe, draws visitors looking for new ideas in the Old World. Visitors to Hamburg spend most of their day over water -- more than 2,000 bridges crisscross Hamburg’s iconic canals to connect city parks, fine restaurants and world-class shopping districts to residential areas. It’s a scenic spot for shore leave, making it a popular stop for cruise lines and escorted tour companies.
