One of the city centre's main attractions are the - covered shopping streets. Some say they were built because of Hamburg's frequent bad weather, but others see them as a special luxury. People come here to shop, to browse and to be seen. As all the passages are inter-linked, customers can pass through just about all of the city centre's south-west area without ever stepping outside. The arcade-lined Colonnaden leads to the Gänsemarktpassage on the Gänsemarkt. From there, the Gerhofpassage turns up at the Oststraße. If you have time, take a quick detour to the Hamburger Hof, which is situated between the Oststraße and Jungfernstieg. The Hanse-Viertel, built as a shopping gallery in 1980, is one of the city´s biggest passages. Choose one of the turns leading to the Große Bleichen and go through the Alte Post Passage, the Galleria and the Kaufmannshaus (merchants´ house). The latter leads to the Bleichenhof. On the other side of the Bleichenfleet, on the Alsterfleet, you'll find the elegant Alsterarkaden. Review © 2009, Wcities |
