Essentials about the Elbphilharmonie in brief
The most beautiful concert hall in the world! Okay, Sydney residents would get into a fight with Hamburgers with their Opera House on this claim. However, it is undisputed that the Elbphilharmonie is a magnificent architectural highlight, both from the outside and from the inside. No wonder that this spectacular building has become Hamburg’s new landmark in recent years.
The Elbphilharmonie from the outside
After a good ten years of construction with countless delays and a gigantic cost explosion of several hundred million euros, Hamburgers have taken their now lovingly “Elbphi” called concert hall to heart. This is not hard at all, given that the building is so spectacular that it shapes the entire silhouette of Hamburg and one can rightly claim that the Elbphi has become the new landmark of the Hanseatic city.
The Elbphilharmonie from inside
But the Elbphilharmonie is not only worth a look or a photo from the outside, you should also have seen it from the inside and ideally also heard it. The interior design and especially the acoustics of the concert halls are undoubtedly among the best in the world. Those who are not lucky enough to get a ticket for an event in the Elbphilharmonie should therefore at least visit the so-called Plaza. From the viewing platform, which runs around the concert hall, you enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of the Port of Hamburg, the Old Town, the Speicherstadt and the Hafencity. A dream come true for all hobby photographers!
