The Free Hanseatic State of Hamburg
This past weekend, we visited our friends Mandi and Daniel in Hamburg. It's a great city that doesn't get much press in the tour books - but we recommend it highly.
Some Facts:
Second largest port in Europe (after Rotterdam)
The port is actually on the Elbe River
Wealthiest city in Germany
Second largest city in Germany
Founding member of the medieval Hanseatic Trading League
