I love Munich (i mog Minga)! The laid back, relaxed, easy going mood of the city feels right. I loved meeting my husband after work in a Biergarten (Seehaus was our favorite). The museums, the parks, the public transportation, Olympia Park, the churches, the culture, the food (Brezeln, Schnitzel) and Bier, the proximity to the Alps... what more could you want?
Hi. From all of the cities you too presented I find Hamburg the most attractive city for my. It has water, fish, is unique. I would like to know more about the northern german cities like Bremen, Lübeck, Rostock und so wieder... Vielen Dank!
Noch schöner, als in einer Metropole zu wohnen, ist es, in der Nähe einer solchen zu Hause zu sein. Ich bin aus Lüneburg, da ist es klein, charmant und beschaulich, und wenn ich möchte, brauche ich keine Stunde bis nach Hamburg :)
@@OkabexKurisu Kommt drauf an, in Berlin gibt es ebenfalls zig wunderschöne Stadtteile und Gegenden, während es in Hamburg ebenfalls genügend Gegenden gibt, die richtig hässlich sind. Hamburg hat halt den ästhetischen Vorteil, dass es am Wasser gebaut ist. Berlin ist dagegen viel grüner als Hamburg und auch extrem dezentralisiert.
jedem das seine. Die Vorstellung fast eine Stunde lang irgendwohin zu fahren ist nicht so cool. Deswegen kenne ich noch nicht alle Ecken Berlins weil die Stadt einfach mega groß ist 😅 Aber ich liebe mein Kiez und wenn ich will bin ich in 20 Minuten mit dem Rad in anderen beliebten Gegenden ✌️
@@sm3675 its maybe a bit late, but Frankfurt is by far the most violent and criminal city in Germany. Despite that, renting prizes are still extremly high
Düsseldorf is a very liveable City about 625.000 People live in this City. The old town and the Promenade along the Rhine River. The biggest Fun Fair /rheinkirmes is hold every year in Düsseldorf. The mediahafen and the Rheintower is worth a visit. Not far from Düsseldorf is the Neigbar City Neuss. The beautyful Quirinus Cathedral and Rheinparkcenter shopping center is worth a visit.
Frankfurt on the Main isn't just that typical "city", where "business" runs, there is a lot of nature in the northern districts, that are most likely little villages (even it is still a city district of Frankfurt). It is just beautiful to ride your bike along the Main (river) that flows into the right tributary Nidda (river). Since 1993 the Nidda has been partially restored to its natural state and a bicycle path built along the river. For me is Frankfurt a little village, where every original Frankfurters knows their people. Sitting in Batschkapp or in a restaurant, drinking your 'Ebbelwoi' and eating your 'Handkäs mit Musik'.
I just wanted to say that I have enjoyed your videos since I found your channel on here. I have always wanted to go to Germany. Watching your videos makes me want to visit more. I want to visit all 5 cities. Thank you for all your videos.
Living next to Cologne, having been living in Frankfurt for about 10 years and travelling very often to the other 3 cities for business reasons, I have to state, that this review is spot on! 😊👍 Beside Oktoberfest the biggest city events throughout the year worth mentioning are "Hafengeburtstag" in Hamburg (first weekend in may), Berlin film festival (in february) & fashion week, Frankfurt's "Museumsuferfest" and... of course... Kölner Karneval (feb/mar) & CSD (first week in july). CSD is not only for the LGBTQ-community, but very welcomed in Cologne for beeing some kind of "carnival in summer". 😁
As a Hamburg citizen who's been basically in every corner of Germany, I think the people in our city are very friendly and actually speak more than i.e. the average Munich citizen. Hamburg is also very multicultural and open minded. I think we got this reputation from the Schleswig-Holstein people, they're friendly but you need to understand them in order to recognize it really. Frankfurt is the place where a few of my family members were born and raised, I think it is a weird city because it's got the skyscrapers on the one hand but also a very beautiful old town on the other hand just next to the skyscrapers and I somehow like it. However the people of Frankfurt are mostly either rich workaholics or very poor. What I like about Berlin is that it basically is the what I'd call politically and historical capital of the world since you can really see that this city went through everything a city can go through in its history, really. It has some beautiful architecture, open minded and down-to-earth people and a lot of interesting lost places you can visit. Munich is not for me, though. Yes, the city itself has some beautiful architecture, I love BMW and beer (however, the real home of beer is the region Franconia), they have a lot of culture but I don't like their people. To me it seems like they think they were something better just because they're from Munich. Here in Hamburg we love to call bavarians 'northern austrians'

But only come after mid- May and not later than mid- October. In other ways, you can be screwed, by bad weather. Especially in the north, which means Hamburg...
Ahhh, seeing all the Köln footage is making me miss my trips to NRW! Only spent a few hours exploring Hamburg on my way back to the the west after visiting friends. Hope I'll be able to adventure through more of the country in the future 😊
@@juyonglee7426 … How can you say it’s boring??? There is so much to do in München! You can tour all the places from the Olympics, there is the Palace, all the walking tours, the history/historical buildings, so many cathedrals, and just being out and watching everything from a nice cafe!
This is great information! It's always interesting to hear different people's opinions on what certain cities are like and how they are viewed by the local population. You've caused me to think I need to do more research!
Ihr habt in München das Olympiagelände und in Hamburg die größte Modelleisenbahnlandschaft der Welt vergessen ;) Und Köln, eine der ältesten Städte Deutschlands, gegründet von den Römern als Militärstützpunkt. Sonst ein super Video, ich verfolge Euch sehr gerne :)
I have visited 4 of the 5 cities on your list at least twice and I lived in München for a semester. Ich ❤️ München -- i mog Minga! I still need to visit Hamburg.
I can really recommend visiting Hamburg. I grew up there and it has just such a beautiful atmosphere and the nicest and most welcoming people. Boroughs like Altona, St Pauli or Sternschanze are stunning and full of great places to meet people in the lttle bars, parks or at the oevelgönne beach at the river:) Greetings from Hamburg!!!
It's crazy how I've only been living in Berlin for almost 6 months and I tend to forget how much larger it is in population compared to the other major German cities... You're definitely right about how there is a Kiez/neighborhood for everyone here
Frankfurt (am Main (on the Main river)) is also called Mainhattan. Hamburg, the city I fell in love with in 2003 and have been faithful since then. Beautiful parks, canals everywhere more than 4500 bridges (ie more than Venice, London, and Amsterdam together). Huge venues for music, as well as cozy little clubs offer music for any and every taste (once this damn pandemic is over). It is also the seat of the Robert Koch Institut, the RKI which continuously updates the numbers during the pandemic, and also one the world's foremost research centers on any new diseases as well cures for them. Museums, clubs, zoos, parks, theme park style rides during the four times a year Hamburger Dom fair. Also one of the main software centers in Germany. For me personally, Hamburg tops every other German city I have been to or even lived in.
Hamburg has indeed most bridges of all cities in the world but its rather 2500 bridges, not 4500 ... btw, Berlin comes likely as 2nd, depending on what is considered a bridge (something like 2100 bridges) ...
I still have not visited Hamburg or Cologne yet. I traveled to Frankfurt because it was a jumping off point to Budapest. I did end up returning to Frankfurt for my return flight and spent a night there to experience the Christmas Market. I spent 5 days in Munich and its surrounding area including Salzburg and on a separate trip, spent 5 days in both the former west Berlin and east Berlin. I loved Berlin - can't wait to go back again.
I lived in West Berlin in 1985. I was able to make 5 trips into Communist held East Berlin. Having stood on both sides of the Brandenburg Gate (it was located in no man’s land), a long time goal of mine is to return to a united Berlin and walk through the Brandenburg Gate. However, I love München and Bavaria.
Hello, In this Video He Mention There Are Some Unclean Areas in Berlin? Is it Correct? I Think Germany is One the Most Cleanest and Best Place.. I Haven't Understood That Berlin Has Some Unclean Places... If You Tell.. Then It Would be The End of My Confusion...
@@jamespetersen74 Berlin is a dirty big city (almost 4 mio people). The district Friedrichshain is alternative, has a lot of street art, graffitis, bars, clubs, punks, beggars and squat houses and a party area. Kreuzberg too, just without punks. Neukölln and Wedding is a mixture of cool and dirty, it has the most population of foreigners, for example one street with almost only Arab shops but around the corner many cool bars (Neukölln Sonnenallee). You get the greatest middle eastern and Turkish food there. These districts are also known for being a working-class area and a poor area but due to gentrification there are a lot of hipsters, students, gallerys, rising rents, and people with money too, who want too live in a cool area by pushing the people away who used to live there. Charlottenburg and Mitte are clean and fancy. The rest is normal, not dirty. It has many parks, lakes and forest too
Munich as "the biggest village in the world" - so true. I lived there and experienced the narrow-minded mentality,. Now I live in the open-minded Berlin for years and love it.
I have to say I stumbled across your page looking for costco reviews, and have been watching your videos every day. My wife is from Kaiserslautern (Rheinland-Pfalz) we met while I was stationed there a few years back. Thank you for the content, and keep it coming!
Cologne is great , a good place to live, But also many of the studios are in the middle neibhgour city Hürth . And Frankfurt, Munich and Hamburg are also great . But i have never visited Berlin. Sad you could not say everything about all cities But have you mentioned Karneval for cologne ?
Supervideo! Sehr informativ, gute Texte, gute Bildzusammenstellungen von euren Reisen dorthin. Wirklich gelungen! Und inhaltlich stimme ich euch voll zu. Bei Köln hätte ihr noch den Karneval erwähnen können und dass es eine alte Römerstadt und von den genannten 5 Städten die älteste ist. Sehr viel Geschichtsträchtiges dort und gaanz viele romanische Kirchen, die neben dem Dom ebenfalls sehenswert sind. Und wenn schon 'gay' , dann weil der dort immer in vor-Corona-Zeiten eine riesige Christopher Street Day Parade stattfand. Weiteres Event, das gleich Millionen Leute anlockt: die Kölner Lichter. 😀 Übrigens: wie kann man nur Wolkenkratzer mögen? * grusel* Also ich bin froh und dankbar, dass wir außer in Frankfurt keine Skylines haben! Daher kommt es vielleicht, dass Berlin eine deutlich größere Fläche hat als andere Metropolen! Wir brauchen halt Platz! 😁
Och... Die Frankfurter Skyline, macht schon was her! Die ganzen Geldfördertürme... Aber es ist einfach, wie es schon immer am cleversten war... Ich kann mir die Skyline betrachten, wann immer ich möchte. Von hier aus, kann man sie sehr gut sehen. Und am cleversten war es schon immer dort zu leben, wo man sagen kann, "nahe genug dran und weit genug weg..." Ich kann zum Leben, großen Städten, nicht wirklich etwas abgewinnen. Aber im nahen Zugriff, eröffnen sich dir immer die gleichen Möglichkeiten, wie den armen Häute die soooo clever waren, in eine solche Stadt zu ziehen, um dort zu leben...
Many other nice Citys to explore :Bonn, Coblenz, Dresden, Neuss, Bremen, Oldenburg, Münster, Nürnberg, Wuppertal, Rostock, Lübeck, Wismar, Magdeburg, Potsdam, Freiburg and some more
Native German babyboomer here my wife and I have chosen to live near Frankfurt/Main in the 1980s so as we are not here because of the birth lottery we are the kind of hardcore local patriots. You claimed that Frankfurt is the place for carrier folks but you did not give a single proof for such a claim, so I decided to give you a helping hand: Look up the GDP numbers for each of these cities and then sort them from the highest to the lowest and ups Frankfurt and Cologne change their ranks. Even with 300.000 fewer inhabitants the GDP of Frankfurt is higher than the once of Cologne so yes it is a business city but at the same time, it is the city of Museums (just one area de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museumsufer ) Theater, and Opera (so-called high culture) and at the same time it is the birthplace of German techno music. To summarise it, yes we work hard, but we although celebrate hard, it is the place you love or you better leave it. Claude Trichet was sent to Frankfurt as the French member at the ECB management board. At that time he and his wife had lived in Paris and his promotion did not sound to them like a promotion to more quality of life, but even now (nearly a decade after his retirement) they own an apartment in Frankfurt because they did find out that the city itself and the surrounding area have more to offer than they ever expected. To prove my claims www.bis.org/review/r090917a.pdf
Hamburg ! Hamburg hat nicht nur die meisten Brücken, sondern auch die meisten und höchsten Kirchtürme weltweit (dicht gefolgt von Lübeck). Viel grün und überall Wasser, nicht nur die Elbe, sondern auch die Alster auf der man wunderbar segeln und Tretbootfahren kann. Hamburger sind außerdem meistens sehr freundlich. Und die Innenstadt von Hamburg war deutlich weniger zerstört im 2. WK als die Innenstädte der anderen Städte. Am 2. Stelle kommt Leipzig, auch eine sehr schöne, gut erhaltene und freundliche Stadt.
I just discovered your channel, and I’m really enjoying your videos. Greetings from Dallas, Texas! I’ve been to Germany many times - Berlin and Munich are my favorite cities.
Nice Video! For a tourist coming to Germany for the first time and wanting to see world-class unique sites each day, I'd rank the cities like this: 1. Berlin ... (huge gap) .... 2. Munich 3. Hamburg 4. Cologne 5. Frankfurt For someone looking for a city to live in, it'll be: 1. Hamburg 2. Cologne 3. Berlin 4. Munich 5. Franfkfurt
@@jamespetersen74 depends on where you go. Every big city has unclean areas and Berlin is no exception. But most parts aren’t that dirty and the parks or tourist places are very clean
So far I have been to 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14th cities in Germany... Berlin is my favourite so far... Hamburg (2), Leipzig (11), and Köln (4) are on my list...
Ich war bis jetzt nur in 3 Städten, nämlich Köln, Berlin & Hamburg und bin ehrlich, ich kann mich echt nicht entscheiden. Ich finde alle drei Städte sehr gut, aber wegen der Nähe würde ich Hamburg sagen.
To be fair to Munich - while surrounded by a rather conservative state, Munich as a city has always been far more liberal. It has become quite posh and expensive in recent years, but there is still a lot Libertas Bavariae around. Munich is a bit posh, expensive and arguably more into fashion than other cities but it's also home to a vibrant alternative culture, which is quite unique combining elements of the Hippie era and Bavarian folklore and is actually quite left leaning. The notrorius CSU which is a more conservative version of the CDU party is weaker in Munich than in any other Bavarian area. Also the German Bavarian accent has been disappearing in the city for the last 30 years. You'll hear more Hessisch in Franfurt than Bairisch in Munich. It's pretty Much standard south German you will hear in shops and supermarkets.
We really love Hamburg and Munich. Both cities have a lot to offer in different ways. Flew into Frankfurt, but didnt get much time to explore except we did visit their zoo. We really want to go to Cologne some day. We drove into Berlin and were going to send a night, but were turned off by the amount of graffiti everywhere and ended up staying in Potsdam. We loved it there. Very great show. Thanks
Wow, you missed out on Berlin because of the graffiti. It's like missing out on Paris because you don't happen to like croissants. Agh, well if you don't like croissants then what is even the point am i rite?
folx, graffiti in Berlin is indeed MUCH MORE than in all (most) other major cities in Europe. you have overall graffiti but not to that extend. But alll have also to learn how to decode graffiti and why people associate different things with it. many Germans are not aware that in many parts of the world graffiti comes indeed often as a sign of more violence/crime in that area. and people who are used to that are of course at first a bit turned off if seeing that much in Berlin and have to learn to re-associate that it is rather harmless. of course you have also always ppl who just dont like graffiti or a city covered with that and prefer more 'cleaner' cities. thats absolutely ok and Germany offers a lot of cities for other tastes - which is good.
Das Beste an Berlin ist ebenso die Umgebung, viel Wasser und Natur. Wir lieben Wasserwandern und das kann man auf der Havel, der Spree und allen angeschlossenen Seen. Und davon gibt es wirklich viele ... LG aus Brandenburg! Und nicht zu vergessen: Die Berliner Badewanne Ostsee erreicht man in zwei Stunden ;-)
I'm from cologne. i was in Berlin and Munich 2 times for a daytrip. Berlin is too international and Munich way to arrogant. Best City for my own: Cologne, friendly people everywhere
Hallo Leute! Thank you for this video! The only german city that I visited is Berlin, and I LOVED it! (And Frankfurt because I landed there ☺️) I'm actually looking at studying in Germany next year, so which city is the best for a foreign student in your opinion? What do you think about Göttingen? I look forward to receiving some opinions!
I think it really depends on what you’re going to study 😅 Cities like e. g. Darmstadt are multicultural and a good spot for scientific purposes in terms of studying 😄👍🏼 So every of Germany’s ‚university cities’ has kind of a specialisation on certain courses, of course in major German cities there is almost every subject offered for studying.. but as well consider that you should make a list of a few different universities which are interesting for you, maybe you don’t get approved at the one uni you wanted to visit because there are already too many people waiting on hold, so it’s always good to keep a plan A, plan B, C etc. 😂👍🏼 I wish you all the best for your future adventure in Germany and I also hope you will find a city that suits you! ☺️🙏🏼
@DepressedUnicorn13 thank you very much for your feedback and great advice! 🙏 I'll keep an open mind then and have a plan A, B, C ... 😆 There is so much that I want to see in Germany, that I won't be sad if I don't get in my first option 😊
My cousin studies in Münster right now and I think the rent prices aren’t too high because there are so many students. ☺️ I live in Berlin and in my neighborhood is the Freie Universität and I think there are many options. But I’m not sure about the rent, so...yeah. Maybe Google can help you. XD
2. Franzbrötchen (cinamon-butter-croisants) are originated there, I believe. Fish. Very little beer bottles (Astra!). Und in Hamburg gibt es nur einen Verein St. Pauli!
It's really hard to find friends in Munich. the people in Munich are a bit arrogant and superficial. people are not that open. The good thing about Munich is the infrastructure, good paying jobs. But being happy in Munich is very difficult. the people in Munich are lonely
I've never been to Germany but I would love to go. I would love to see the "sights" on the Reeperban- It looks great on Y-tube. Did you visit the Pennymarkt? That place looks crazy
I have only flown in (and through) Frankfurt airport and did not take advantage of visiting that city nor any of the other four big cities. I was able to visit Stuttgart to see Porsche museum. Would definitely like to visit Germany.
Love your content! It's been super helpful. We are heading to Leipzig in July/August and wondering if you have any recommendations for quieter, nature-connected neighborhoods with good transport links for accommodation? Any advice would be awesome! 🥰
great video 🙌 just one thing to mention: research shows that most of the millionairs in germany live in hamburg. I am living in berlin and love it for its open minded and multicultural people.
I'm from a Saxon town and we visited Hamburg and Berlin with the whole class. For everyone who doesn't know: in Germany we have something called "Klassenfahrt" and it translates to school trip but it's not just for a day, a "Klassenfahrt" is going oln for usually 4-5 days. In Hamburg (in 8th grade) we saw a lot of cool indoor activities like the Humbug Dungeon and in Berlin (in 10th grade) we visited a lot of political and cultural things like the Reichstag. I liked both cities a lot but I wouldn't like to live there, I'm a town person '^^
Berliner here living in San Francisco, totally recommend anyone to visit Hamburg and Berlin, amazing cities. I believe anyone would love em, there is so much to do. Berliners might come across as cold to some but ones you break the 'wall' (LOL) they are some of the most kinda hearted helpful people. One of the things I miss in the US as a Berliner is the fact hat I can go out by myself and meet people I join to move around town for some bar and club hopping! DO IT! VISIT BERLIN, or Hamburg :). The others are fun to but those two are the best for fun without being richt (talking to you Munich :) )
Ich kann das so auch nicht unterschreiben, mit dem distanzierten Verhalten. Mir wurde schon von wildfremden Leuten in Berlin, morgens Kaffee und Kekse ans Auto gebracht (nachdem 8 Jungs in 2 Autos einfach mit dem Schlafsack im Grünstreifen vor den Nachkriegs 3- Stockwerk- Reihensiedlung, genächtigt hatten). Dafür gab's einen Strauß Blumen von uns. Und ein anderes mal, habe ich einen Spezi verpasst (er hatte meine Ankunft völlig verpeilt), der in Berlin studiert hat. Das war lange vor den Handys und er somit nicht einfach erreichbar. Ich wartete also in der nächsten Eckkneipe, auf seine Rückkehr. Natürlich viel bald auf, dass ich immer wieder versucht habe anzurufen und auch öfter nach draussen ging, um zu sehen ob Licht in der Wohnung brennt. Nach meinem Verhalten vom Thekenpersonal befragt, wurde mir spontan eine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit angeboten. Ich bin niemals von Berlinern mies behandelt worden. Und ich war oft dort in meinem Leben...
@@idk-mg9rh honestly none really. I guess from the big ones Berlin maybe? Lots of different cultures that influence food cultures for example. Also very much art and clubbing city. Munich when it comes to the prices but Berljn is catching up. sf is pretty unique I think.
@@iliasschulz9625 thank you for the kind response! what about on the tech side of things? are there any cities that have a similar culture to silicon valley/the bay area?
Great video. I believe we have visited all the cities you mention, although Munich was about 40 years ago so we really should visit it again. Cologne was our least favourite and we did not find a lot that interested us to see, maybe that was because it was Monday and anything we wanted to go see was closed. Frankfurt was really really busy and we could not find anywhere to park even though there were parkades. There was a lot of construction going on so when we tried to go to places we were road blocked. We have family in Hamburg so we will always visit there and we love the Hamburg. It is clean, there is lots to see. We went to Berlin and really would like to go there again. We did not see everything we wanted to see so another trip is definitely in the plans.

Munich by far is my favorite large city in Germany. When I was able to go there I just felt so safe and just felt like I was home.
On the other hand, it is the most boring city I have ever lived. Like they said Munich is the biggest village in the world
But that is the best part about it. Where I’m from all the town I live in has is 2 bars and 2 churches.
@@juyonglee7426 … How can you say it’s boring??? There is so much to do in München! You can tour all the places from the Olympics, there is the Palace, all the walking tours, the history/historical buildings, so many cathedrals, and just being out and watching everything from a nice cafe!
Munich look so beautiful!
True! :)
But it is too boring to live. Nothing there. To visit for 2-3 days would be good but it can be the worst to live.
@@juyonglee7426 what do you mean with "nothing there"?
@@juyonglee7426 scheiß touri
This is great information! It's always interesting to hear different people's opinions on what certain cities are like and how they are viewed by the local population. You've caused me to think I need to do more research!
Ihr habt in München das Olympiagelände und in Hamburg die größte Modelleisenbahnlandschaft der Welt vergessen ;) Und Köln, eine der ältesten Städte Deutschlands, gegründet von den Römern als Militärstützpunkt. Sonst ein super Video, ich verfolge Euch sehr gerne :)
I have visited 4 of the 5 cities on your list at least twice and I lived in München for a semester. Ich ❤️ München -- i mog Minga!
I still need to visit Hamburg.
I can really recommend visiting Hamburg. I grew up there and it has just such a beautiful atmosphere and the nicest and most welcoming people. Boroughs like Altona, St Pauli or Sternschanze are stunning and full of great places to meet people in the lttle bars, parks or at the oevelgönne beach at the river:) Greetings from Hamburg!!!
It's crazy how I've only been living in Berlin for almost 6 months and I tend to forget how much larger it is in population compared to the other major German cities... You're definitely right about how there is a Kiez/neighborhood for everyone here
Loved your portrait of Berlin
Ich habe genau dieselbe Erfahrung gemacht. Hamburger sind total nett und aufgeschlossen, insbesondere jene die etwas älter sind.
Frankfurt (am Main (on the Main river)) is also called Mainhattan.
Hamburg, the city I fell in love with in 2003 and have been faithful since then. Beautiful parks, canals everywhere more than 4500 bridges (ie more than Venice, London, and Amsterdam together).
Huge venues for music, as well as cozy little clubs offer music for any and every taste (once this damn pandemic is over). It is also the seat of the Robert Koch Institut, the RKI which continuously updates the numbers during the pandemic, and also one the world's foremost research centers on any new diseases as well cures for them. Museums, clubs, zoos, parks, theme park style rides during the four times a year Hamburger Dom fair. Also one of the main software centers in Germany.
For me personally, Hamburg tops every other German city I have been to or even lived in.
Which German city has the warmest weather?
@@sm3675 freiburg im Breisgau
Hamburg has indeed most bridges of all cities in the world but its rather 2500 bridges, not 4500 ...
btw, Berlin comes likely as 2nd, depending on what is considered a bridge (something like 2100 bridges) ...
I still have not visited Hamburg or Cologne yet. I traveled to Frankfurt because it was a jumping off point to Budapest. I did end up returning to Frankfurt for my return flight and spent a night there to experience the Christmas Market. I spent 5 days in Munich and its surrounding area including Salzburg and on a separate trip, spent 5 days in both the former west Berlin and east Berlin. I loved Berlin - can't wait to go back again.
Hamburg has 1.9 million inhabitants and we are also rich 🥴
Hamburg is so beautiful ❤️
Berlin is a great city to visit with many things to see for the tourist.
Yes yes yes ..... I'm looking forward to Munich and the Oktoberfest and Deana in a "feschn Dirndl" :-)
Well, now I want to visit all these cities because it looks so beautiful there😂
But the question is: which one is the most beautiful! 😁
@@DeanaandPhil I have been in Berlin a few years ago, so I would say Berlin😂
@@DeanaandPhil hamburg, den rest kann man vergessen. :D
100% accurate with great representative footage. :)
My son is half-German...I went first time to FC ST PAULI and still support them after 2 decades....
St Pauli 🤎🤍
One thing you could mention about Munich is 30% of the population is foreign. You can hear dozens of different languages walking on the streets.
I can't believe I have only just now stumbled upon your channel. Awesome stuff guys!
Who can not be friendly to the two of you. Always enjoy your videos no matter what country. Thank you
So which one are you moving to?? 😃
I lived in West Berlin in 1985. I was able to make 5 trips into Communist held East Berlin. Having stood on both sides of the Brandenburg Gate (it was located in no man’s land), a long time goal of mine is to return to a united Berlin and walk through the Brandenburg Gate. However, I love München and Bavaria.
Hello, In this Video He Mention There Are Some Unclean Areas in Berlin? Is it Correct? I Think Germany is One the Most Cleanest and Best Place.. I Haven't Understood That Berlin Has Some Unclean Places... If You Tell.. Then It Would be The End of My Confusion...
@@jamespetersen74 Berlin is a dirty big city (almost 4 mio people). The district Friedrichshain is alternative, has a lot of street art, graffitis, bars, clubs, punks, beggars and squat houses and a party area. Kreuzberg too, just without punks. Neukölln and Wedding is a mixture of cool and dirty, it has the most population of foreigners, for example one street with almost only Arab shops but around the corner many cool bars (Neukölln Sonnenallee). You get the greatest middle eastern and Turkish food there. These districts are also known for being a working-class area and a poor area but due to gentrification there are a lot of hipsters, students, gallerys, rising rents, and people with money too, who want too live in a cool area by pushing the people away who used to live there.
Charlottenburg and Mitte are clean and fancy.
The rest is normal, not dirty.
It has many parks, lakes and forest too
Munich as "the biggest village in the world" - so true. I lived there and experienced the narrow-minded mentality,. Now I live in the open-minded Berlin for years and love it.
You haven't been th Stuttgart, obviously. ;-)
Please stay in Berlin
This is exactly what makes this city so special!
I have to say I stumbled across your page looking for costco reviews, and have been watching your videos every day.
My wife is from Kaiserslautern (Rheinland-Pfalz) we met while I was stationed there a few years back.
Thank you for the content, and keep it coming!
Hamburg is my favorite city of Germany. It is my second house 🏠 I lived here :)
Appreciate video on Dusseldorf, Bonn, Hanover, Stuttgart, Leipzig.
your videos are so fun to watch ;)
We have Berliners in South Australia. One of my favourite foods. We have many German/ Prussian descendants here. Myself included.
Great content, thank you
Good joke!
Here's one:
Why does Bavaria have Oktoberfest?
To make themselves have fun once a year.
Cologne is great ,
a good place to live,
But also many of the studios are in the middle neibhgour city Hürth .
And Frankfurt, Munich and Hamburg are also great . But i have never visited Berlin.
Sad you could not say everything about all cities
But have you mentioned Karneval for cologne ?
Supervideo! Sehr informativ, gute Texte, gute Bildzusammenstellungen von euren Reisen dorthin. Wirklich gelungen! Und inhaltlich stimme ich euch voll zu.
Bei Köln hätte ihr noch den Karneval erwähnen können und dass es eine alte Römerstadt und von den genannten 5 Städten die älteste ist.
Sehr viel Geschichtsträchtiges dort und gaanz viele romanische Kirchen, die neben dem Dom ebenfalls sehenswert sind.
Und wenn schon 'gay' , dann weil der dort immer in vor-Corona-Zeiten eine riesige Christopher Street Day Parade stattfand.
Weiteres Event, das gleich Millionen Leute anlockt: die Kölner Lichter. 😀
Übrigens: wie kann man nur Wolkenkratzer mögen? * grusel*
Also ich bin froh und dankbar, dass wir außer in Frankfurt keine Skylines haben! Daher kommt es vielleicht, dass Berlin eine deutlich größere Fläche hat als andere Metropolen! Wir brauchen halt Platz! 😁
Och... Die Frankfurter Skyline, macht schon was her! Die ganzen Geldfördertürme... Aber es ist einfach, wie es schon immer am cleversten war... Ich kann mir die Skyline betrachten, wann immer ich möchte. Von hier aus, kann man sie sehr gut sehen. Und am cleversten war es schon immer dort zu leben, wo man sagen kann, "nahe genug dran und weit genug weg..." Ich kann zum Leben, großen Städten, nicht wirklich etwas abgewinnen. Aber im nahen Zugriff, eröffnen sich dir immer die gleichen Möglichkeiten, wie den armen Häute die soooo clever waren, in eine solche Stadt zu ziehen, um dort zu leben...
I hope we all can travel more and learn about different cities, countries etc.
I didn't even know that Hamburg is the second biggest city in Germany!
It's a little bit like Seatte: overlooked in the northwest.
I want to give a shoutout to my three favorite German cities which are all not in this video: Düsseldorf, Leipzig and Münster.
Many other nice Citys to explore :Bonn, Coblenz, Dresden, Neuss, Bremen, Oldenburg, Münster, Nürnberg, Wuppertal, Rostock, Lübeck, Wismar, Magdeburg, Potsdam, Freiburg and some more
This video is about the "big five".
I love all 5 of them. Impossible to say which one my favorite is... Berlin has a lot to offer though! :)
Native German babyboomer here my wife and I have chosen to live near Frankfurt/Main in the 1980s so as we are not here because of the birth lottery we are the kind of hardcore local patriots.
You claimed that Frankfurt is the place for carrier folks but you did not give a single proof for such a claim, so I decided to give you a helping hand: Look up the GDP numbers for each of these cities and then sort them from the highest to the lowest and ups Frankfurt and Cologne change their ranks. Even with 300.000 fewer inhabitants the GDP of Frankfurt is higher than the once of Cologne so yes it is a business city but at the same time, it is the city of Museums (just one area de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museumsufer ) Theater, and Opera (so-called high culture) and at the same time it is the birthplace of German techno music.
To summarise it, yes we work hard, but we although celebrate hard, it is the place you love or you better leave it.
Claude Trichet was sent to Frankfurt as the French member at the ECB management board. At that time he and his wife had lived in Paris and his promotion did not sound to them like a promotion to more quality of life, but even now (nearly a decade after his retirement) they own an apartment in Frankfurt because they did find out that the city itself and the surrounding area have more to offer than they ever expected. To prove my claims www.bis.org/review/r090917a.pdf
I have loved my visits to Germany. Your video is so informative. Thank you !!
❤❤❤my fav is köln
Nice pro pic! 😍
@@DeanaandPhil ohhh thank uuu🙈❤❤❤
Well, hello from Cologne 🙃💙
love this💖
Hamburg ! Hamburg hat nicht nur die meisten Brücken, sondern auch die meisten und höchsten Kirchtürme weltweit (dicht gefolgt von Lübeck). Viel grün und überall Wasser, nicht nur die Elbe, sondern auch die Alster auf der man wunderbar segeln und Tretbootfahren kann. Hamburger sind außerdem meistens sehr freundlich. Und die Innenstadt von Hamburg war deutlich weniger zerstört im 2. WK als die Innenstädte der anderen Städte. Am 2. Stelle kommt Leipzig, auch eine sehr schöne, gut erhaltene und freundliche Stadt.
I just discovered your channel, and I’m really enjoying your videos. Greetings from Dallas, Texas! I’ve been to Germany many times - Berlin and Munich are my favorite cities.
Nice Video!
For a tourist coming to Germany for the first time and wanting to see world-class unique sites each day, I'd rank the cities like this:
1. Berlin
...
(huge gap)
....
2. Munich
3. Hamburg
4. Cologne
5. Frankfurt
For someone looking for a city to live in, it'll be:
1. Hamburg
2. Cologne
3. Berlin
4. Munich
5. Franfkfurt
Berlin has also a lot of trees and parks which makes it the most green city in Germany. (I think even Europe but I’m not sure)
He Called About Some Unclean Areas in Berlin... Is it Right?
@@jamespetersen74 depends on where you go. Every big city has unclean areas and Berlin is no exception. But most parts aren’t that dirty and the parks or tourist places are very clean
What about Saxony
So far I have been to 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14th cities in Germany...
Berlin is my favourite so far...
Hamburg (2), Leipzig (11), and Köln (4) are on my list...
Leipzig is growing . It is no. 8 in population now.
Ich war bis jetzt nur in 3 Städten, nämlich Köln, Berlin & Hamburg und bin ehrlich, ich kann mich echt nicht entscheiden. Ich finde alle drei Städte sehr gut, aber wegen der Nähe würde ich Hamburg sagen.
To be fair to Munich - while surrounded by a rather conservative state, Munich as a city has always been far more liberal. It has become quite posh and expensive in recent years, but there is still a lot Libertas Bavariae around. Munich is a bit posh, expensive and arguably more into fashion than other cities but it's also home to a vibrant alternative culture, which is quite unique combining elements of the Hippie era and Bavarian folklore and is actually quite left leaning. The notrorius CSU which is a more conservative version of the CDU party is weaker in Munich than in any other Bavarian area. Also the German Bavarian accent has been disappearing in the city for the last 30 years. You'll hear more Hessisch in Franfurt than Bairisch in Munich. It's pretty Much standard south German you will hear in shops and supermarkets.
Liberal does not equal better though. Go to Berlin and you'll have more than enough of the liberals
We really love Hamburg and Munich. Both cities have a lot to offer in different ways. Flew into Frankfurt, but didnt get much time to explore except we did visit their zoo. We really want to go to Cologne some day. We drove into Berlin and were going to send a night, but were turned off by the amount of graffiti everywhere and ended up staying in Potsdam. We loved it there. Very great show. Thanks
Graffiti is a part of Berlin as it was part of the Berlin Wall
Graffiti is part of any major European city lol.
Wow, you missed out on Berlin because of the graffiti. It's like missing out on Paris because you don't happen to like croissants. Agh, well if you don't like croissants then what is even the point am i rite?
@@marinaalinescu1660 Just seemed very crazy. loved the layed back fell in Potsdam.
folx, graffiti in Berlin is indeed MUCH MORE than in all (most) other major cities in Europe. you have overall graffiti but not to that extend. But alll have also to learn how to decode graffiti and why people associate different things with it. many Germans are not aware that in many parts of the world graffiti comes indeed often as a sign of more violence/crime in that area. and people who are used to that are of course at first a bit turned off if seeing that much in Berlin and have to learn to re-associate that it is rather harmless. of course you have also always ppl who just dont like graffiti or a city covered with that and prefer more 'cleaner' cities. thats absolutely ok and Germany offers a lot of cities for other tastes - which is good.
I'm from Hamburg and we say Hamburger Schietwetter.
i hope to visit all of them!
Hamburg is the best city in Germany. I was born there, live there and love there!
Also Munich is the home of Circus Krone! The largest Circus in Europe! 😁
Das Beste an Berlin ist ebenso die Umgebung, viel Wasser und Natur. Wir lieben Wasserwandern und das kann man auf der Havel, der Spree und allen angeschlossenen Seen. Und davon gibt es wirklich viele ... LG aus Brandenburg! Und nicht zu vergessen: Die Berliner Badewanne Ostsee erreicht man in zwei Stunden ;-)
Richtig
Good overview of each. Just reinforces my desire to stick to the small villages (Munich excepted of course). Not a big city fan.
I'm from cologne. i was in Berlin and Munich 2 times for a daytrip. Berlin is too international and Munich way to arrogant. Best City for my own: Cologne, friendly people everywhere
Hallo Leute!
Thank you for this video!
The only german city that I visited is Berlin, and I LOVED it! (And Frankfurt because I landed there ☺️)
I'm actually looking at studying in Germany next year, so which city is the best for a foreign student in your opinion?
What do you think about Göttingen?
I look forward to receiving some opinions!
I think it really depends on what you’re going to study 😅
Cities like e. g. Darmstadt are multicultural and a good spot for scientific purposes in terms of studying 😄👍🏼
So every of Germany’s ‚university cities’ has kind of a specialisation on certain courses, of course in major German cities there is almost every subject offered for studying.. but as well consider that you should make a list of a few different universities which are interesting for you, maybe you don’t get approved at the one uni you wanted to visit because there are already too many people waiting on hold, so it’s always good to keep a plan A, plan B, C etc. 😂👍🏼
I wish you all the best for your future adventure in Germany and I also hope you will find a city that suits you! ☺️🙏🏼
@DepressedUnicorn13 thank you very much for your feedback and great advice! 🙏
I'll keep an open mind then and have a plan A, B, C ... 😆
There is so much that I want to see in Germany, that I won't be sad if I don't get in my first option 😊
My cousin studies in Münster right now and I think the rent prices aren’t too high because there are so many students. ☺️ I live in Berlin and in my neighborhood is the Freie Universität and I think there are many options. But I’m not sure about the rent, so...yeah. Maybe Google can help you. XD
You guys are great you put on an interesting vlog thanks
You did the Ulmer Münster dirty with your remark on the size of the Kölner Dom :P
You guys are amazing😍. I love your vibes
Another thing about Cologen (Koln) is that it is very close to Dussledorf which has a large Japanese Community.
2. Franzbrötchen (cinamon-butter-croisants) are originated there, I believe. Fish. Very little beer bottles (Astra!). Und in Hamburg gibt es nur einen Verein St. Pauli!
Cologne and Berlin reminds me of Melbourne and Frankfurt reminds me of Sydney!
damn, this video is a big hit
sehr gut
Hi👋 Deana and phil. i'm from Israel . and i been in amburg very beautiful. i have frends live there.i been olso in berlin. Love you guys 👍
Peace forever
It's really hard to find friends in Munich. the people in Munich are a bit arrogant and superficial. people are not that open. The good thing about Munich is the infrastructure, good paying jobs. But being happy in Munich is very difficult. the people in Munich are lonely
I've never been to Germany but I would love to go. I would love to see the "sights" on the Reeperban- It looks great on Y-tube. Did you visit the Pennymarkt? That place looks crazy
I live 10 min walking from that Penny, it is crazy!
I have only flown in (and through) Frankfurt airport and did not take advantage of visiting that city nor any of the other four big cities. I was able to visit Stuttgart to see Porsche museum. Would definitely like to visit Germany.
Love your content! It's been super helpful.
We are heading to Leipzig in July/August and wondering if you have any recommendations for quieter, nature-connected neighborhoods with good transport links for accommodation? Any advice would be awesome!
🥰
Such a nice video.
great video 🙌 just one thing to mention: research shows that most of the millionairs in germany live in hamburg. I am living in berlin and love it for its open minded and multicultural people.
my favourite city is munich , try to get there twice a year , then my second is koln
We flew into Frankfurt, but stayed in Weisbaden, but toured Franfurt on Rein & Koln. That church was AMAZING, but couldn't go in....
I love Hamburg but Munich is the city I truly love. Hope to be back when this covid shit is over.
I'm from a Saxon town and we visited Hamburg and Berlin with the whole class. For everyone who doesn't know: in Germany we have something called "Klassenfahrt" and it translates to school trip but it's not just for a day, a "Klassenfahrt" is going oln for usually 4-5 days. In Hamburg (in 8th grade) we saw a lot of cool indoor activities like the Humbug Dungeon and in Berlin (in 10th grade) we visited a lot of political and cultural things like the Reichstag.
I liked both cities a lot but I wouldn't like to live there, I'm a town person '^^
Tolles Video!
Cologne!!!
Best city
Berlin second ;-P
Berliner here living in San Francisco, totally recommend anyone to visit Hamburg and Berlin, amazing cities. I believe anyone would love em, there is so much to do. Berliners might come across as cold to some but ones you break the 'wall' (LOL) they are some of the most kinda hearted helpful people. One of the things I miss in the US as a Berliner is the fact hat I can go out by myself and meet people I join to move around town for some bar and club hopping! DO IT! VISIT BERLIN, or Hamburg :). The others are fun to but those two are the best for fun without being richt (talking to you Munich :) )
Richtig
Ich kann das so auch nicht unterschreiben, mit dem distanzierten Verhalten. Mir wurde schon von wildfremden Leuten in Berlin, morgens Kaffee und Kekse ans Auto gebracht (nachdem 8 Jungs in 2 Autos einfach mit dem Schlafsack im Grünstreifen vor den Nachkriegs 3- Stockwerk- Reihensiedlung, genächtigt hatten). Dafür gab's einen Strauß Blumen von uns. Und ein anderes mal, habe ich einen Spezi verpasst (er hatte meine Ankunft völlig verpeilt), der in Berlin studiert hat. Das war lange vor den Handys und er somit nicht einfach erreichbar. Ich wartete also in der nächsten Eckkneipe, auf seine Rückkehr. Natürlich viel bald auf, dass ich immer wieder versucht habe anzurufen und auch öfter nach draussen ging, um zu sehen ob Licht in der Wohnung brennt. Nach meinem Verhalten vom Thekenpersonal befragt, wurde mir spontan eine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit angeboten. Ich bin niemals von Berlinern mies behandelt worden. Und ich war oft dort in meinem Leben...
@@iliasschulz9625 what city do you think is most similar to sf?
@@idk-mg9rh honestly none really. I guess from the big ones Berlin maybe? Lots of different cultures that influence food cultures for example. Also very much art and clubbing city. Munich when it comes to the prices but Berljn is catching up. sf is pretty unique I think.
@@iliasschulz9625 thank you for the kind response! what about on the tech side of things? are there any cities that have a similar culture to silicon valley/the bay area?
Great video. I believe we have visited all the cities you mention, although Munich was about 40 years ago so we really should visit it again. Cologne was our least favourite and we did not find a lot that interested us to see, maybe that was because it was Monday and anything we wanted to go see was closed. Frankfurt was really really busy and we could not find anywhere to park even though there were parkades. There was a lot of construction going on so when we tried to go to places we were road blocked. We have family in Hamburg so we will always visit there and we love the Hamburg. It is clean, there is lots to see. We went to Berlin and really would like to go there again. We did not see everything we wanted to see so another trip is definitely in the plans.
wunderbar i like your videos
