Where trains once ran, nature has now reclaimed its habitat. A walk along the old Billwerder railway embankment leads through the middle of the Allermöhe meadows nature reserve.

With a bit of luck, you will spot black-tailed godwit and redshank in the wet meadows. The now rare lapwing and other endangered bird and plant species also feel at home along the old railway embankment and in the meadows criss-crossed by numerous ditches.

The "green lung" of Hamburg. Planten un Blomen

The Planten un Blomen Park in the centre of Hamburg is a wonderful destination for families, couples in love and those seeking relaxation. There is a botanical garden with a tropical house and the largest Japanese garden in Europe. Whether marvelling at flowers or enjoying a tea ceremony in the Japanese garden, everyday life is far away here.
