Warehouse Town

In 1888, Bismarck forced Hamburg into customs territory so there was a motive to build a warehouse city. With many years’ development the area of warehouse city has reached 300,000 square meters now. It has become the world’s largest integrated storage market. The Gothic architecture of 6th to 7thstory brick structure constitutes the long warehouse city street both water and land. The treasures from everywhere are stored behind the thick walls. People can find coffee, tea, cocoa and tobacco, but also carpets and high-end electronic products. But these goods are stored here but some of them were further processed to make them become more perfect. It has the world’s largest Oriental carpet warehouse in warehouse town. There are three waterway shipping routes going through Warehouse Town from Jungefernstieg. Light art, museums, exhibitions and the world’s largest integrated storage market and the Warehouse Town is lit by soft lights every night attract more visitors, even including the local people in Hamburg. The largest integrated warehouse style market in the world belongs to one of the favorite tourism destinations. With the implementation of lighting measures at night the attraction of this historic town is growing. The most charming highlight in Hamburg is to take a boat to go through the Warehouse Town that is full of lights.
