WALKING TOUR THROUGH ST. PAULI -
perhaps the most famous red ligth district
of Hamburg

Tuesday 6 October 2009
(2100 - 2230)

In front of the conference hotel Empire Riverside is the Hamburg port with the River Elbe and the shipyard Blohm + Voss. But right behind the hotel starts St. Pauli, the notoriously famous amusement quarter. With the famous Reeperbahn and the crowded Große Freiheit, St. Pauli is known all over the world as a very liberal, glamorous, exciting and permissive red-light district. Taboos are unknown here. There is, of course, another St. Pauli: boozy Bavarian-style dance halls, discos, clubs, music bars, some with live music, cosy old harbour inns.

In a guided walking tour you will experience the diversity of this quarter. The English speaking guide will provide you with historical facts as well as entertaining anecdotes. The tour will pass through picturesque streets and places where seafarers used to spend their money and where nowadays people from all over the world live and party almost every day: Davidstraße, the Hafenstraße and Hein Köllisch Platz. Next station would be the Reeperbahn and Große Freiheit.
