4. St. Nikolai Church
The St. Nikolai Church is another fabulous church to visit in Downtown Hamburg. Indeed, only the ruins of this Gothic Revival church are left, except for its huge spire, which still stands majestically at nearly 150 meters above ground. Built in the end of 19th century, the St. Nikolai Church was one of the main churches in Hamburg, but after a massive bombardment in the World War II, the church was almost completely demolished. However, the impressive spire survived and its black nuances can be seen from far away, because it is the second-tallest building in the city.

5. Alster Lake
Alster Lake is a large blue area, situated in the heart of Hamburg. This artificial, but beautiful lake is created by one of the tributaries of the river Elbe - the Alstel River, which flows through the city and also forms a network of canals. Lake Alstel and its tributaries are used for transportation purposes, but they are also a major recreation and relaxation area in the city center. The shores of the lake are bordered mostly by green parks and picturesque walkways, which are best to enjoy a couple of leisure hours on a bench, for example, away from the noise and lights of the big streets. Moreover, numerous marinas along the shoreline transform the lake into a real oasis for boating, yachting, kayaking and other outdoor watersports and attractions.
