In April 2019 we went to Hamburg, and this time by car. This big North German city is perfectly reachable for us living in the very south of Sweden. We just take a ferry to Helsinore,Denmark, drive south and via another ferry (with perfect timing for lunch), Rödby â Puttgarden, we reach Germany. A five-hour drive in all.
We had both been there before, but separately, for work. This time we would have time to see a Hamburg transformed, where just like in Liverpool, Copenhagen and Gothenburg the old port with its empty warehouses and deserted docks has been replaced with modern buildings or completely rebuilt ones, with apartments, companies and institutions that enjoys the closeness to the water.
