Schleswig-Holstein, Germany | City of Lübeck, Kiel, Flensburg, Elmshorn | Drone 4k video | Germany

Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The video, filmed using a 4k drone, tells the story of a region of Germany permeated through and through with the Scandinavian atmosphere. In the video review, you can find a little-known part of the country, filmed from a bird's eye view.
Schleswig-Holstein is one of the federal states of Germany, located in the very North of the country. The region shares a land border with Denmark. The territory of the earth is almost entirely located on the Jutland peninsula. The region attracts tourists with its incredible landscapes - they say it resembles picturesque and cozy Switzerland. It is also distinguished by the pacification that settles in the hearts of guests and residents. The region is located between the North and Baltic seas, which attract a lot of tourists who want to enjoy the fresh and salty air.

Capital
The capital of the state is the city of Kiel. A small but atmospheric German town attracts travelers with a history that sends you straight to the Vikings. However, it keeps up with the times, so tourists come here for shopping in fashionable shops and national dishes in a variety of restaurants and cafes.

Nature
The Schleswig-Holstein region is conditionally divided into several zones. It makes no sense to compare them, since each of them is unusual and original. In the south of the region there are green forests on the tops of hills, diluted with small transparent lakes. Previously, the former independent Duchy of Löhenburg, now informally called "Holstein Switzerland", was located here.

Major cities
The capital is truly famous for its old ships, which found shelter in the bay. By the way, Kiel hosts annual regatta competitions of an international character. For example, Kiel Week has been held every June since 1882.

City of Lübeck. On the banks of the Trave River is one of the largest ports in Germany, as well as the second largest city in Schleswig-Holstein. It is located just 58 km from Hamburg, in the South-West. The highlight of the Baltic is rich in brick Gothic architectural monuments (more than a thousand historical buildings, for a second!). Houses with easily recognizable spiers perched on equally valuable old streets. Once this city was part of the basis of the Hanseatic League, as we are told by medieval merchant houses that have been preserved to this day. In the “Queen of the Hansa”, city guests are looking for comfort and charm, which only provincial cities with a rich history have. The city has a mild climate. Summers are warm and humid (thanks to the Baltic Sea), and winters are by no means harsh.

Flensburg, the northernmost city in the region, is truly a part of Denmark in Germany. Located on the banks of the fjord, it has long been under the jurisdiction of Denmark. She made a lot of impressions on the life of the city - even now performances are held here in Danish, and indeed the entire entertainment sector is adapted to the natives of the neighboring country.

Elmshorn is another town in the region, noticeably smaller in area and population. Not rich in attractions, however, it attracts guests with its cozy provinciality. They say that it is impossible to get an idea of ​​the country without visiting its outskirts. Dotted with small houses with amazing details, it will tell not about the history of the region, but rather about how its inhabitants live. Along with the old buildings in the city, there are many new buildings that street artists love as a canvas for their drawings.

What to watch?
Fans of extreme sports will definitely like the Hansa Park, built in the Gothic style beloved by the Germans and located near Lübeck. Usually they drop in here after a walk along the embankment of the Baltic Sea. Although the target audience of the park is, of course, kids. You can get to the place by train from Hamburg or by rented car from anywhere.
Hedeby is located on the border with Denmark. Once a major trading center for the Danish Vikings, it is now the most important find of archaeologists. All fans of medieval Scandinavians, their mythology and legends will not find a more authentic place. You can get there only with transfers - from Hamburg by train to Kiel, from the capital to Schleswig, and then by taxi - but it's worth it.
In Lübeck, not far from the Holstein Gate, there are old salt warehouses. They are located along the water route "Old Salt Route" from Lüneburg to Lübeck. In the Middle Ages, traders transported salt, which was mined in Lüneberg, to Lübeck in this way. From there, she already got to Northern Europe.
