For many inhabitants of and visitors to Hamburg, the Jungfernstieg is the heart of the city centre: a multifarious connection between the Binnenalster lake and adjacent shops and sights.
The many trips with the Alster steamers start from here.

These are Hamburg’s classic shopping streets - and they have not lost any of their urban charm even today.

For the inhabitants of Hamburg, the historical significance of this promenade plays an important role: once, families took a walk here on Sundays and presented their unmarried daughters ("Jungfern" or virgins) in public – hence the name. Even today, the Jungfernstieg is something really special: people enjoy being directly next to the water – the Binnenalster, arrange to meet here at this central location and start their shopping trips in the nearby department stores from here– first and foremost the well-known and traditional Alsterhaus – and small but select shops.

"On the Reeperbahn at half past midnight ...". Almost everyone knows the song of Hans Albers, and he already hinted at the variety of amusements on Hamburg's "geiler Meile" (Udo Lindenberg). The Reeperbahn, also called "Kiez", is and remains Hamburg's number one entertainment district. With the Operettenhaus, numerous table dance bars, discotheques and student clubs, there is nothing that does not exist here at 930 meters in length! Quieter during the day, the street awakes in the evening. Thousands of people of all ages are on their way to enjoy themselves - ranging from cabaret to techno to commercial sex.

The Kontorhaus district – Europe’s oldest office district – is just next door and awaits with the spectacular Chilehaus, an Expressionist icon and especially worth seeing.
