What is the Hamburg city bird?
The Crain...
There are more crains in the this part of town then any other area I've ever seen before. All the same this and the East Sea Canel near Heildesheim are major "water streets" at any time of day you can see great ships comming and going.
Don't miss the "Swinging fery" in Heildesheim either, it is the longest swinging fery in the world.
