The
Mönkebergstraße
is
the
main
shopping
street
with
most
of
the
big
shopping
chains
(Esprit,
H&M,
Saturn,
Karstadt,
Kaufhof,
S.
Oliver
-
just
to
name
a
few). It
is
definitely
one
of
Germany's
best
shopping
streets.
It
runs
from
the
central
train
station
(Hauptbahnhof)
to
the
City
Hall
and
is
largely
pedestrian
zed.

Hamburg
was one of the first cities to
introduce shopping galleries -
small elegant shopping malls in
the middle of the city. And when
you walk along Jungfernstieg
to
Gänsemarkt
and
Neuer Wall you
will find dozens of these
galleries! These are the real
designer shops and very expensive,
but window shopping does not
cost you much - plus they do
have nice cafés and bars there
as well! 
The
Hamburger Hof
(hotel)
shopping niche is also on the Jungfernstieg.
Cosmetics,
contemporary
clothing
and
shoes
can
be
found
in
this
shopping
centre.
Europa
Passage
is a
new
shopping
mall
in
the
center
of
Hamburg
which
seems
to
be
enormously
popular.
It's
only
a
few
hundred
feet
from
the Rathaus,
and
overlooking
the
Binnenalster.
It
boasts
over
100
shops
on
five
floors,
including
names
such
as
Esprit,
H&M,
Hilfiger
Denim,
Kult
and
Sasch,
not
to
mention
the
largest
sports
shop
in
Europe.
Rathaus Passage/ Markt
Here you can find souvenirs, typical street food and other reminders of your time in Hamburg. Plus, admire Hamburg’s beautiful Rathaus at the same time.
Stilwerk
Seven floors and almost thirty stores provide a glimpse of Hamburg's more up-scale interior design and furniture stores. This one-stop shopping also comes with a front seat view of the Elbe.
Levante-Haus
A fine example of Hanseatic Kontorhaus (trading house) architecture, Levante-Haus was built just before WWI by a local shipping magnate. Now completely renovated Levante-Haus has been transformed into a high class shopping centre complete with offices, restaurants and the superb Hyatt hotel.
Hanse-Viertel
A quarter of a century old and looking good for its age, this luxurious indoor shopping arcade is packed with shops selling everything from clothes to porcelain to perfume. There’s a good Mövenpick café in the basement too.
Gänsemarkt Passage
You are sure to leave with something new after entering this passage. For fun and stylish shoes and accessories, as well as delicious ice cream and bagels.
Galeria Kaufhof
Germany’s ubiquitous behemoth department store is the best place in town for ladies’ cosmetics, clothes, electrical goods, chocolates and everything else under the sun.
The downtown Karstadt store complex (on Moenkebergstrasse) always was and definitely still is the best place to shop in all of Hamburg. To go one step further, it is one of the top shopping addresses in all of Europe! Here you'll find almost everything you can imagine throughout the year at very reasonable prices. It is one of the reasons why I love to return to beautiful Hamburg. Try it yourself, you won't be disappointed!
Saturn
Allegedly the largest electrical goods store in the world this big grey lump is packed with floor upon floor of all those gadgets you forgot to pack and more besides.
Bären Treff
For some reason many people tend to associate Germany with gummy bears. Perhaps this store is the reason. Take home a giant gummy bear or an assortment of gummy candies from this store.
