Ports

“Kołobrzeg” literally means “by the shore” in Polish. It is located on the Parsęta River on the the Baltic Sea, in north-western Poland. The city has historical monuments to visit. Kolobrzeg is a popular tourist destination for Poles, Germans and Danish people. Enjoy the beach or go biking on the bike path along the seaside to Podczele. Visit the Gallery of Modern Art in the town hall. Or relax and have a drink in a beer garden.

Hamburg is the second-biggest city in Germany and a second-largest port in Europe. The port itself if a major tourist attraction, with its numerous canals, bridges and buildings from the past eras, as well as the naval museum Museumshafen Oevelgönne.
Hafengeburtstag is a funfair to honor the birthday of the port of Hamburg with a party and a ship parade. Take a walk in the Planten un Blomen Park with its different fascinating sections and cross the Elbe in an old tunnel underneath.
