Altona Elbeview Hamburg

Nicest benches with a view

Inga Marie from Hamburg

About me I do professional city tours in the most beautiful town I know: Hamburg. And believe me, I’ve seen, smelled and tasted quite a few. So now you know my favorite things: arts (to see and hear), food (to smell and eat) plus I treasure education, so why not check out some great places in Hamburg that show it all? Great place ahead, so come with me and check my hometown. W...
""Altona Elbeview" next to Hamburg's famous 'Altonaer Balkon' has an impeccable vier over the harbour... and benches! I like coming here with my lunch!"

I love to sit and watch the ships come in and there there are some benches nearby the famous "Altonaer Balkon" for that which provide more privacy and a similar great view. You just have to cross the pedestrian bridge from "Altonaer Balkon"'s western edge over the street and you will find them.

From the benches you have an impeccable view towards the harbour. Take some lunch from Altona downtown with you and you will be rewarded with water, sun and wind. And while the workers in the harbour make sure that Hamburg and the world are connected, you can relax and dig in the feeling of being a part of it. From a little distance.

Oberhafenkantine

Experience old harbor traditions

Oberhafenkantine is a true Hamburg original. It's the only harbor canteen still working. But it's not just the unique feel — I also really love its food!
