The Elphi is Hamburgs pride, it took forever to build it and cost a fortune but it hosts world-famous musicians and our own marvellous Elbphilarmonie Orchestra. If you have a change to buy tickets for the big concert hall, do go for it (last minute tickets are sometimes available, the best chances to get a last minute ticket are for morning or midday concerts), visiting the view platform is worth it anyways even without a concert ticket.

Arts & Culture
If you want to know more about Hamburg and its history (did you know we were party Danish at some point?? And did you know our humour is often compared to the British sarcasm?? yeah yeah, I guess we Germans aren´t as humourless as it seems) - visit our Hamburg history museum, its a pleasant stroll away from my apartment through the beautiful Park of Planten un Blomen (which means plants and flowers).

My favourite exhibition space for arts and photography. If you are in to Japanese cuisine you might want to check out the family run restaurant Daruma just behind Deichtorhallen. Do not expect anything but lovely and loud Japanese owners from Kansai area ( they are much more cheerful than the ones from Tokyo area) and authentic pub cuisine such as handrolled sushi, Tempura, meat skewers and Japanese beer and sake. Nothing fancy but super down to earth authentic and yummy Japanese street food!
